If you’ve seen the video and don’t find it funny, I don’t think that any explanation or context will help. I guess not everyone has the same humour

It’s pretty self-explanatory really… It’s just a fun advertisement

I wonder why it doesn’t render a preview though. At least not on Voyager client

I am not sure… It would be in my main language but may mean something else in english?

I meant it is the same way as ‘assimilate’ but I don’t really know what would be most appropriate

Alternatives are great if only people were using them.

No thanks to propaganda in here

I know about germs because I used to snort cocaine off public toilets

It might be the other way around too though… You might be thinking of buying something, because Facebook or google have convinced you that you need it

That said, I had to create an account in FB due to work and studies. I did some research and decided to run it only on a browser and use a seperate browser only for FB. Along with some strict privacy rules.

My account was flagged within 30 seconds of creation. They asked for a selfie ID that they got and they did a manual assessment but banned the account nonetheless for not following community guidelines

You can’t even read their community guidelines without accepting their cookie policy

The Epstein files are the reason

I feel like people are eager to change and make new habits but won’t go places where there is no content.

It’s the streamers and youtubers who need to move, but they won’t because of of the other platforms don’t have similar monetization

Keep me informed!👌👍🤞

Same!

It needs an app (edit: that is available through Play store or the corresponding apple shop)

And it needs to render uploaded videos to the maximum allowed file size. Regular people don’t know how to make their videos smaller. I only managed to do it by uploading to you tube the then downloading it from there. Then it was small enough to to be uploaded to loops

Also, easier sign up and more content

I’m not surprised that they are against it but very surprised that they so blatantly expose their reasoning. If you don’t buy my product, it’s not good for me, therefore it is not a good idea 🤷

But unlike prison you get paid and you can ultimately just quit and find something else to do

It’s a sliding slope though. The initial reasoning is fair. But it will eventually spread to other features like (potentially) creating and owning servers or holding administrative and moderation roles

It’s the same with the chat control currently looking over EU. Nobody can say that they are against efforts to stop CSAM. The issue is that the efforts don’t limit themselves to fighting that. Likewise the age verification on Discord does not seem to be targeted or limited to certain content. They are leaving the door open to use it any way they want

The real problem is, that the majority of users won’t change, and it’s the users that make Discord. There could be a much better alternative but if users are too lazy to change, it is worth nothing.

This is the case with Facebook messenger too. There are great alternatives, but it’s messenger that has the userbase

This is what got us into this mess in the first place

I went through this dilemma too and actually talked with ente about it. It turns out that they did initially try to set it up in Europe as they are a global team, but the EU requirement for physical presence in the country was limiting for them.

They said that there were workarounds for this but decided on setting it up in the US because it was very straightforward with no workarounds or limitations

I like the way they are going with ente though and feel like it’s a fair price. The software works well too

That is 99% meta!
