YES! This is AMAZING! 🎉

Keep pushing against abusive practices, and keep fighting for your privacy rights!

IT WORKS! ✊🔒

Edit: Just to be clear, I still encourage everyone to move to better platforms and delete your Discord accounts (even if there was no age verification at all). Discord isn't a privacy-respectful platform.

But this small victory means we should keep pushing for better privacy practices, everywhere.

This means they are listening. This means you have the power to make things better, for yourself and for others.

Celebrate that. And keep pushing back.

@Em0nM4stodonEm :official_verified: Until they explicitly say they're scrapping ID/face verification of age for everyone, I say we keep the fire under their asses going. Tell the Stoat and Matrix and Mattermost and all the other platforms that people are going to that they should use this time to prepare for the second influx that'll come in 3-6 months when Discord does the thing they still plan on doing. Those who have already swapped should keep at it. If Discord wants to die on this hill, let them.

Floppy disks were introduced in the early 1970s and in the two decades before they became obsolete, tens of billions were produced, most of which ended up in landfills, long-forgotten storage, or libraries. Archivist Leontien Talboom has been working for the past few years to preserve the floppy disks in the Cambridge University Library, collaborating with retro-computing enthusiasts. She talked to @PopularScience about the project.

서울시장을 대선주자 감이 한다기엔 서울시장 하다 대통령 된 사람이 이명박이랑 윤보선(?!) 밖에 없는디 윤보선이 서울시장이었던 건 방금 찾아보면서 처음 알았음

but since Everyone Can Do This Now i feel a bit differently about it, it's like it doesn't even matter who did it, and whether it fades into oblivion or not. any software with a spec is now a multiverse of potential implementations and it seems like they could benefit mainline
