Discord’s Post

Someday Discord will, like every other corporation, prepare their initial public offering - then sell the platform. Once that happens, everyone will leave that corporate network and go elsewhere. It’s the same cycle that happens over and over again. It happened to MySpace, Tumblr, Twitter, now Reddit, and eventually Discord. When these sales happen, these policies disappear which causes an exodus of users to other places. There is a book about this phenomenon “Read Write Own by Chris Dixon” and it’s a fascinating read.

I am always awestruck by what Redditors and SubReddits do when they come out in each other's support. It was reported that recently around 6000 subreddits went dark which was portrayed as a blackout but it was not a blackout but a powerful statement. Over 6000 Reddit communities collectively took action. These communities united in a synchronized effort, temporarily limiting their activity to draw attention to the concerns regarding Reddit's increased API pricing. Their collective action showcased the strength and solidarity of the Reddit community. This event highlighted concerns about the affordability and accessibility of Reddit's APIs. Users said the strike would end if Reddit addresses API issues, increases accessibility for blind users, and creates parity for access to content not safe for work. The company blamed the outage which is now resolved, on the blackout. This demonstrates the benefits of belonging to a community and the power of unity in support of a common cause. A lot to learn from this recent event. #community #reddit #blackout #protest #rights

Discord is Going To Give Out Warnings Instead of Permanent Bans: Discord is overhauling the way it moderates its platform with a new warning system and teen safety assist feature. From a report: The new Discord warning system has been totally revamped to be far more transparent, educating Discord users how they've broken rules and are restricted from parts of the service rather than permanently banning them. "The new system gives users more room to learn from their mistakes and correct misjudgments," explains Savannah Badalich, Discord's senior director of policy, in a briefing with The Verge. "We're moving away from permanent bans to one-year temporary bans for many violations, except for violations that are extremely harmful." In the coming weeks, Discord will start to limit features for rule breakers, instead of banning them outright. If a Discord user violates the rules, then they'll be met with a DM from Discord letting them know about the warning or violation and what action Discord is taking. So, if a Discord user uploads an image that breaks the rules, they might temporarily take away the ability to post images. Read more of this story at Slashdot.

Regarding the attachment: It's understood that no one is perfect and that everyone makes mistakes. An underdog knows what a topdog is but does what's right no matter what because they think that it will benefit them - they know that they have nothing to show for their good intentions until 1 day. Opposite of an underdog is a topdog: A topdog knows what an underdog is but does what's wrong no matter what because they think that it will benefit them - they know that they have nothing to show for their evil intentions until 1 day. Underdog and topdog are slang from the 1980s and 1990s. (Those idiots change definitions online - they either faketify or delete what they don't like online). I tried to come up with another word such as spirited or free thinking but neither are complete as a synonym for underdog. Me and my best friend Kimberly met in summer 2010 and were reminded of how we were our junior and senior years of high school by the song Raise Your Glass by Pink that we heard in 1/2011. We were like when did we start fighting to not let certain things get to us?? Got it from this thought from Alecia H's song where underdogs are wrong in all the right ways meaning that we may not be society's idea of successful but we did things the right way and so raise your glass for the underdog - an anthem/raising a toast for underdogs haha!! This attachment was actually a pin on my backpack. We had to google underdog because not hearing it beginning in 2000 was the equivalent of the definition being deleted from our memories. It's bittersweet because we were ready for them in 5/2011 because we had faith in ourselves like no other but we were also their first hetero(straight)phobic felony hate crime victims for this particular crime spree that's 13 years and counting....
