And perhaps sidestepping its own policy in the process.
And this is why you can’t trust corporations. They won’t stand up for you, or give you any chance at all, if another corporation wants to see scorched earth. The DMCA, ya’ll.
Fucking discord. They tried to speedrun a walled garden and have had some moderate success, but does anyone trust them at this point?
Do people using discord now think they’re going to still be using it 3 years from now? 2?
Yes. They get squeezed again and again and keep falling for the same grift.
Using it for 8 years, never gonna stop
Well, the next best option would be paying for hosting in a 3rd world country who doesn’t give a shit about international copyright laws. Not an easy task, but hosting your own Discord like platform is probably the absolute best you can do if you’re running an operation like making an emulator while the copyright bandits cry foul.
Sure, hosting your own platform or using a decentralized solution would prevent this bullshit, but the whole situation is worse than just them deleting it. The whole issue is that no Discord terms of service were violated here. So they went against their own terms with this move, which means anyone is subject to the same actions even if they are complying with the terms of service.

Sure, but if you were comfortable with Discord as a home for this work, people have been speaking up against discord as a resource for these kinds of things pretty much since the beginning of discord.
Its a lesson learned, but better off now that later. No corporation can be trusted. You have that knowledge now if you didn’t before. Make decisions accordingly.
People were not comfortable about it until 2021 when they relaxed their terms of service. Heck, Discord even approved them as community servers that have stricter rules.
It’s a clear move that they are done with Discord being a chat platform and ready for their IPO.
The cat has won today, I wonder what the mouse will do tomorrow

Weird name for a mouse but will do
