"try adding numbers"

It HAD numbers, you picked those numbers!!

They even let us pick the numbers! That's why I got Nitro originally! I'd have never paid for years of nitro without that feature, in fact.

I don’t get their motivation behind this change. I mean I read the write-up they posted, but I don’t get how they could seriously think this is a better experience for users.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

it's a better experience for corpos that want their brand name to be uniquely identifiable.

Their blogpost was complete gaslight, none of the points they listed made any sense.

It was literally just look more like a mainstream social platform, there are rumours of an IPO...

Oh good, Discord is gonna blow itself up. Maybe we can all go back to Mumble and IRC once it’s all over.

Epic, another shittification speedrun?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Can't you just add the numbers back yourself and set a displayname without it?

Screw them. They use snowflakes anyway so what's the point

they still haven't given me the option to "update" my name yet lol

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's based on nitro but also how old your account is. I don't have nitro but joined in 2016 and got a message to update mine last week

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago

oh my old discord account was banned a while back so I had made a new one lol. I guess that's why. I also don't pay for nitro.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago

I wish revolt was more popular smh

They recently added display names while keeping the tags as a direct 'fuck you' to discord lol
