Tbf statistical calculations put grooming on discord in the higher percentages unfortunately.

That said I don't get what their endgame is. Blanket ID verifications will clearly eat into their bottom line, making it unsustainable. Either there's some limits on it that I'm not aware of or they just budget in a huge decrease in margins.

I just don't get the logic of "we do it to fight grooming", because it just doesn't make sense timing wise, but "we do it because UK and Australia are making us do it anyway" also doesn't pan out because I just cannot imagine the predicted results look manageable.

The results are kinda obvious regardless. Losing their core audience and subsequently twisting their bottom line, just like Facebook.
