It’s literally owned at large (undisclosed as a private company it is) part by Tencent , by one of the most major famous companies/puppets of CCP/Communist Chinese Party.

China is known for abolishing anybody who disobeys their rules and anybody who accuses them of not being more “Free” or for criticizing them. (Egh egh … Jack Ma). Obviously anybody who opposes their demands ceases to exist. Anything they can’t control, they’re banning it. It’s a known fact, not a tinfoil one. With dozens of examples:

• Google
• Winnie the pooh - coz a bunch of uni students said Xi looks like him and he got insulted. How shitty ego can you have
• Peppa Pig: This animated children’s show was temporarily banned in China because it was seen as a subculture icon of the “shehuiren” (society person), a term used to describe people who run counter to the mainstream value and are usually poorly educated with no stable job.
• Brad Pitt: Following the release of the movie “Seven Years in Tibet” (1997), which portrays a negative view of China’s activities in Tibet, Brad Pitt was banned from entering China.
• Bohemian Rhapsody movie: All references to Freddie Mercury’s sexuality and AIDS diagnosis were removed
• South Park: well … any fun who watches south park knows. And there’s even an episode dedicated to that.
• Lady Gaga, Selina Gomez, Maroon 5, Chinese Celebrities like Fan Bingbing disappeared for several months in 2018 amidst a tax evasion scandal
• “Time-travel” TV dramas

Anyway. We all know how China doesn’t like Criticism. This is just a list for the bots that will come down to accuse me of being tinfoil hatted.

And discord is literally a platform with NO-TEXT-ENCRYPTION. So, OBVIOUSLY, YEAH, they know everything you write there. Literally. And your profile name, and your history, your servers, chat logs, what games you like more if you connected your steam, what music you listen to if you connected your spotify etc.

Discord should be banned from the whole universe. Not just explode.

nice. now big corporations buy big corporations who own small companies. and the loop opens for others too now (as this is how it works in judge system - refer to previous judgement - take credibility and win the case). very nice.

because what did I want more than even more monopoly and even more illusion of choice.

linux-headers

and I mean, why not?

fuck reddit, and any corporation that takes advantages of its users like reddit.

We are the ones who give you value, not vica versa. Their IPO depends on how many users they have. Not on the capabilities of your app. And they treated it vica versa.

From then I just made my parade for pro-privacy and for pro-anticorp that takes advantage of its users, deleted my META account thus my Instagram, Messenger etc. My Discord. I dont care anymore. Even if I dont have now I will find someday other options. Better or not, they are options. And Lemmy seems a very good one, even better I would say, just not as user friendly - yet. (Not that reddit’s app was good but we all knew that we had to use apollo/boost anyway)
