I hear people are doing a surprise-pikachu about Discord's new ad push?
arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/0…
Truly surprising that a *checks notes* proprietary, centralized, VC-funded platform started enshittifying the moment it gained enough market share to make it very difficult for people to flow elsewhere. 🤯
Nobody saw that coming!
Discord heightens ad focus by introducing video ads to mobile apps in June
Discord looks for more ways to make money ahead of expected IPO.Scharon Harding (Ars Technica)
Maybe time for people and groups to start considering #Matrix for their current #Discord servers, as Discord becomes focused on getting money out of everyone who uses it, with likely enshitification beginning soon. #XMPP/#Jabber is also an alternative.
Both are decentralized, publicly owned services, where you can interact with anyone else regardless of which server they choose to be hosted on, just like Mastodon, et al.

Prepare For Discord To Get Way Worse
The video game chat platform is reportedly exploring a Wall Street IPOEthan Gach (Kotaku)
"Rather than treating BlueSky as 'the space' for community-specific conversations, I’ll encourage folks to drive those conversations to community-specific spaces (like Discourse, Discord, etc)."

Discord is also someone else's kingdom, and well on its way to enshittifying. Something like a Matrix space would be a castle independent of anyone else's kingdom.

This makes me furious. Please, stop using Discord. They are complicit if they keep the discord server responsible for keeping the spam attacks alive.
im getting really tired... -w-
summary of today:
someone on a Japanese hacker forum decided it was a good idea to spam the entire Fediverse because they wanted to cancel a minor that DDoSed a Discord bot which apparently made them lost millions (what?)
A Discord bot. I can't make this shit up man.
The real culprit seems to be someone who goes by mumei
in the ctkpaarr.org forums, whose first post was literally a threat to ap12, that if they don't delete their "Kuroneko Server" Discord bot, they will spam every blog, forum and SNS and cancel him.
This shit is ridiculous.
The ap12
account from mastodon-japan was actually fake, and this dude impersonated a minor to get all of the Fediverse (us) to bully him.
The forum admins didn't even stop this. Why? lulz apparently. #fediblockmeta#fediadmins#fediadmin#mastoadmin#mastoadmins#spam#cybercrime#cybersec#infosec#drama#discord

Interesting to see government challenges trying to get involved in a community that they don't understand. #Discord & #Mastodon are obviously very different, but wondering what "Gotchas" there might be for #government sites exploring alternative #SocialMedia accounts.
As people flock from #Twitter, there will be new things watch for.

A Letter to #Discord for not Supporting the #Linux Desktop
theevilskeleton.gitlab.io/2022…
I rewrote the whole article because I sounded extremely rude before. It's not nice to be rude to developers, whether you like them or not; whether the application is open source or not. Hopefully this revision is respectful and doesn't sound like I am shaming them.
A Letter to Discord for not Supporting the Linux Desktop
Discord is popular among the Linux desktop community. Thanks to Electron, the framework that Discord uses, it was possible for Discord to port the client over to Linux very easily.TheEvilSkeleton

The benefits of @MatrixDotOrg@twitter.com over #Discord are many, but Discord has one huge killer feature:
When I see a #privacy project whose only realtime comms platform is on Discord, I know the people in the project either don't care or don't know enough about privacy (or both).
