I’m absolutely deleting my discord account once they update it with the age verification. The matrix protocol is a reasonable alternative joinmatrix.org
Chat Freely with Matrix.

Imagine a place… where you are welcomed to be yourself, where you have control on your data, and where you can talk more privately, while also allowing you to socialize with others. Join Matrix, the federated chat platform that actually respects you.

Join Matrix!

  • Company does new “bad” thing.
  • Thing gets media attention.
  • Company postpones/reassures.
  • Attention dies down.
  • Company rolls out thing more slowly over longer period of time.

Not saying that’s what’s going to happen. Just keep that in mind and maybe use this time to explore some other options. That usually doesn’t hurt and if push comes to shove moving won’t be as painful.

Generally if possible diversifying is usually a good thing no matter what.
