#Discord is worse than #Mailingists, #IRC and #Forums combined because those - like #GitHub #Issues or any other public site & server - can at least be #crawled and #archived in a #searchable fashion.
Whereas Discord is peak #Enshittification and not only #AntiAccessibility but also the worst kind of communication solution, as there isn't even any option to export stuff from within it - something even #Slack & #MicrosoftTeams can do [#Zulip has been able to do that from the start]...
Discord is a bad and wrong excuse not to provide #public documentation and/or downloads.
#GithubPages is free & #DDoS-protected #Webhosting and for fast downloads on the cheap, #BitTorrent exists for almost two decades now...
I mean, do people who use Discord know how many times people like me needed to use @internetarchive / #InternetArchive's #WaybackMachine to access contents?
How many hours of labour have been collectively saved by #DuckDuckGo #InstantAnswer linking to the correct #StackOverflow / #ServerFault thread??Discord is an #InformationBlackHole and should be regarded with the same public accessibility as a intelligence agency's database: Don't use it and don't contribute to it - period!

@colinstu @chirpbirb +9001%
This #HostileDesign and #AntiAccessibility is sadly being exported around the globe...
There should be an extra #hell for asshole that think "#loitering" should be criminalized.

@enigmatico TBH, I hate the #Enshittification that gets us shitty #WebApps with #DarkPattern|s and horrible #UX like #Discord and #MicrosoftTeams.
IMHO there's no valid excluse not to have a easy-to-use, free and publicly accessible #API like #Zulip, #ntfy or even #Oshi has.
Everything else is just #AntiAccessibility by design and should be outlawed!
-
@jhpot sadly noone I'm allowed to name, but #Captchas never worked and are a blight as they are #AntiAccessibility and only work at deterring #disabled users.
-
@ppatel #Captchas in general should be outlawed as #antiAccessibility features!
AFAIK, @stux combats #botting via verification eMail and rate-limiting registrations...
