Isn't this exactly what happened to Tumblr back in 2018? It feels a little different since Tumblr is one big unit and Discord has its content shared by servers so it's not like you're immediately able to find NSFW content with Discord without explicitly searching out and finding a server to add.

I applaud apple for their work towards making iOS secure, but I still just can't get on board since they can decide at any time I don't have the ability to choose for myself what software I want to run. There's a reason my first iPhone was immediately jail-broken and I left the platform almost 10 years ago.




Discord is one big unit; its “servers” aren't servers.


Yes, from a technical perspective you are right. However, from a conceptual perspective, you can't see any of the content in a server without being specifically invited. There is no global search. You are clearly either "in" or "not in" a server unlike, say, a Tumblr tag.



Not quite. Tumblr just followed rules and applied a weak filter hidden in the settings. Then yahoo bought them and killed it for #ads


It was only when Verizon bought Yahoo.
