Can we just use ai generated faces?

I think this may not be the best time for them to do that….
I ain’t scanning shit.
Teamspeak, Steam groups/chat, etc.
I knew discord would go to shit after going public but even I didn’t predict it would be this fast.
You can thank Roblox for this shit.
That’s fucked
My life is on there, and I ain’t gonna give them any ID. Wth do they expect me to do
They expect you to give them all your data
Steam groups now work like discord. We’re migrating there until I figure out how to host a server of Teamspeak or Mumble.
A bad move from Discord.
Is it really? How many people are actually gonna quit Discord instead of grumble angrily about it? Look at what happened with Reddit. They did something users don’t like, the users got angry and protested, most of them accepted the changes and stayed.
I have not seen a single person say this is a good idea. From Reddit, to Twitter, to Bluesky, and Lemmy. It’s pretty much universally hated everywhere you go.
I’m deleting my account the day before they implement this.
Time to delete that crap I guess
I’m giving Stoat.Chat a go this evening. Looks promising as a self-host alternative.
Was trying to get it set up earlier, but doesn’t look like it has good Linux support yet. I could also be stupid, I never rule that out.
I had missed that it doesn’t have voice support. The closest thing to a relatively simple setup I’ve found is VoceChat. It doesn’t self-host voice, but lets you link in a third party known as Agora, who offers free monthly voice minutes, but they’re still a third party. The setup wasn’t the worst, but definitely took careful reading.
I would switch tonight but there’s not voice chat in the self hosted version yet.
But doesn’t have a client (yet)?
I just set up my own Matrix server. Holy shit that was annoyingly hard.
I’m not even done. I have to set up Element Call for audio/video.
Pretty sure audio calling is also not fully encrypted? And still no game streaming with video or audio, last I checked.
I don’t really mind it not being e2e encrypted, since it’s hosted on my own hardware, but that’s good to know.
I have some discord bots for use with some self-hosted applications (changedetection, etc…). Does Matrix have similar functionality?
Users who aren’t verified as adults will not be able to access age-restricted servers and channels, won’t be able to speak in Discord’s livestream-like “stage” channels, and will see content filters for any content Discord detects as graphic or sensitive. They will also get warning prompts for friend requests from potentially unfamiliar users, and DMs from unfamiliar users will be automatically filtered into a separate inbox.
That shouldn’t be too restricting for people using discord to chat with their friends though.
We’ll see what they actually implement, and how they do so.
