Discord age verification

[firecat]

I guess Discord is going to start requiring users to prove they are over a certain age if they want to access certain content.

I mainly use Discord to keep connected to fanfic fandom, most of which has certain content. And I definitely am not going to upload my ID.

Does this affect you? If so, what are you going to do when it goes into effect?

My hope is that people are pissed enough and cancelling Nitro enough that they back down.

I mainly use it for writing groups and shitposting. One server I'm on killed its NSFW channel; everyone else is debating what to do. On some social media, they can figure out how old you are by other means (I would have had to have been eight when I started on Discord, which is not impossible, but the length of time I've had the same account makes it likely that I'm an adult).

I dunno, it's my main social media. If it comes down to it I might give them a fake ID like I did with Facebook.

How did you acquire a fake ID?
