Bully harder.

Anyone in the UK will tell you this is BS.
Cancel Nitro and tell them WHY.
Discord has posted updated clarification:

-Discord is not requiring everyone to complete a face scan or upload an ID to use Discord
-The vast majority of people can continue using Discord exactly as they do today, without ever being asked to confirm their age

To quote my high school bus driver, "If these parents don't want to deal with the responsibility of raising their kids, mom should've kept her legs closed."
As a fucking parent TALK TO YOUR FUCKING KIDS THEN. Worried they'll see porn? Talk to them about porn. Worried they'll see gore? Talk to them about gore. Worried they'll get groomed? Talk to them about red flags and cultivate trust with them so they won't feel they have to hide things from you.
"As a parent, I am deeply concerned about what my child is accessing online. Albeit not enough to check or to install some very basic software that would prevent them from accessing dodgy material online. That's why the Online Safety Act is so important."

I think the censorship of trans people and Palestinians on this website is a very legitimate issue that should be discussed more

However it is somewhat ironic to see that being used as a reason to not use it from people who use the site owned by an Epsteinite

Please recognize that some people will be into things that are upsetting to you but that does not necessarily make them evil or harmful to society. It is 2026, can we please leave this worthless discourse cycle behind? This petty arguing only distracts from the real issues of our time

Here's a hot take of mine, I have no regrets for being vocal about supporting kink/NSFW/ABDL folks. I made newer friends from folks in those communities and they're friendly.

Seriously though, this sucks. Most of the commission requests I've gotten haven't been through social media or email, but straight through Discord. Quite a few features are going to be disabled for those who don't want to have their ID scanned...

and a large chunk of people aren't gonna just give over their ID to Discord (especially when they recently had a data breach). Some people might say that most people won't mind not having access to NSFW content but... Remember what happened to Tumblr?

A lot of people are going to leave and jump ship, and while there are already several Discord alternatives it will probably be a good while before people settle on one as the main replacement (like Discord was for Skype).

I know I'm not the only artist who gets a lot of business from Discord contacts. This is gonna affect a lot of freelance artists and people in general and it's not gonna be fixed right away.

Strap yourselves in, it's gonna be a rough ride.

Now that I'm up (Thanks discord). Here's what you need to know

Discord will start asking face recognition, and government ID starting next month. Submit requests here:

support.discord.com/hc/en-us/req...

Emailing discord will no longer work
Submit a request – Discord

When submitting a request. Here's a template I borrowed from someone. I'm sure someone will come up with a better email message (with proper alt text) but for now here's this template....

....WITH ALT TEXT ENABLED FOR FFS

If YOU think this template message is too long please refer to the bullet points here:

bsky.app/profile/emry...
If you're struggling with wording your email, hit these bullet points in your own words:

- Where you heard about discord implementing face scanning (link)
- What your thoughts on face scanning are
- How you will react if they go through with this (leaving Discord, pulling Nitro payment)

Just got this email back. Don't use email, use their form: support.discord.com/hc/en-us/req...

If you haven't used their support portal, you may need to request activation and use the email you have associated with your disc account.

Hit the same points as you would in an email, tips below ⬇️

There is not a single social platform I am invested enough in to give them my government ID. I will literally up and move anywhere else, and if there's nowhere else, I will simply go offline. These companies really overestimate their value.

"I Like It Like That" by Cardi B. For the amount of time when it was everywhere, it annoyed the shit out of me. It even partially-ruined a perfectly suitable birthday for me.
