Moving on

Why I'm likely moving away from Discord

Caution

Using Kloak at the moment is NOT recommended, read more here!

Note

Official Discord article here.

Starting in March of this year Discord is rolling out age verification to users globally.

Unfortunately even people unaffected by OSA are limited unless verified, regardless of where they live.

This move was entirely optional and as a result of this I will be moving over to another platform.


You can now find me on following platforms:

Footnotes

  1. Missing and/or broken features (e.g. screen sharing). ↩ ↩2

  2. I've been told that developers are considering it. ↩ ↩2

  3. Registration generates a random unused 64 character long key that is assigned to your account without additional recovery and security options, length itself isn't sufficient considering that's the only option! ↩

I would also highly suggest reading a bit about this! - fluxer isnt just "another discord clone"
