  1. More info on what exactly happens when discord scans your face or ID, and more reason to leave for an alternative.

    Also this youtuber mentioned people having messaged him about how they're working on making alternatives for discord. So i'm sure we'll see even more alternative options launching soon.
    That being said, I hear Root is pretty good.

    I recommend using a privacy focused video player for youtube videos.

  2. We who value #FLOSS, #openTech, #openProtocols can't fail to notice how dearly we need one another's support. So when I hear "join our Discord"* from a supposedly #freedomTech project my heart sinks. We should feed the proprietary silo? Deny our community the very freedom and joy of using open tech? Oppose our own work and values? How sad, how ridiculous. No! We must turn towards our #freedomTech cousins.

  6. We put it on Github. And we all lived happily ever after, inside Microsoft's cosy walled garden. Now where could be the harm in that?

  7. According to Mumble ( trymumble.com ) :
    They have finally answered me. The support said there is some server issue and they are trying to fix it. Later this month or early april Mumble will go online again. I am hyped about creating an account there. 🤪
