For open-source projects and stuff that needs to be public, I can feel you.
What these chucklefucks are asking for is to make ALL Discord content indexable and searchable, even extremely private intimate things, and that’s absolutely unacceptable.

No one wants their private/semi-private chats to be indexable or searchable. The whole POINT is to not have what you say broadcast to all and sundry.
Cars shouldn’t require cell phone towers to function. It’s a CAR.
The only way to stop it is to stop letting people play with strangers and to go back to local LAN sessions, or for games to be private only with temporary invite codes that have to be shared manually, with a maximum number of users allowed.
Online anonymity really has ultimately harmed us as a species and conferred little if any benefit.
Primitive, provincial knuckledragging Americans/Brits/Right-wing country’s citizens don’t want to learn C or understand how their computer truly works. 😆
Yeah. That tracks
Why would anyone using FOSS stuff like Linux even want shitty corporate games anyway?
You’re right, I haven’t. What dumb bullshit were they saying?
Then start convincing people to use it.
The only one who is going to be hurt by you constantly making excuses is you. No matter what hurdles you face, you have to overcome them, even if you have to build your own separate network from scratch, or you’ll never be free from the yoke of corporations and more importantly for you, you’ll never be free of the blame.
Then start building community ISPs that allow for individuals to have their own IPs again.
If you want to solve the problem, you have work to do.
Or you can sit around and complain like you’re trying to justify and defend doing, and live without access to ad free quality videos. Your choice.
Then purchase a hosting service. Off-shore VPSes are pretty cheap, and they take Bitcoin. Even fucking Paypal uses Bitcoin nowadays. Only hurdle in your way is you.
There’s rule of law in the U.S.? 🤔
Anytime you all want to go back to making your own websites
Anytime
If the browser itself could check those fragments though… 🤔
It’s your proposed solution that’s the problem. The answer isn’t to make Discord public, it’s to convince people to move off of it, and quite honestly, if you want people to leave Discord so badly, you’d be better off setting up separate public forums for the open source projects you are interested in on your own and convincing/bribing respected members of the Discord to post there, or copy/paste technical info there.
I feel the same way about Lemmy so I sympathize with you, honestly.
