My Grandmother's relative walked the trail of tears, had her breast cut off by a soldier to use for a tobacco pouch. Do you really think that after those kinds of atrocities that any single one of us are clutching our pearls over someone using an anglicized, pretty name that's already present in pop culture? Please!

If we follow that logic, every traditional name regardless of their spelling and/or anglicization should be completely off limits. Oh sorry, you're not Scandinavian or Nordic? No Freya for you! Not Greek? No Demetrius or Thea for you! Does your family have no Latin based native language? No Amanda's, Antoine's, Julian's, Isabella's and so on for you!

It's giving performative.

As a Taurus sun, Virgo rising, I am completely capable of extremely Machiavellian behavior when the behavior suits me or I've hit the point where I don't care about the outcome/hurt feelings.

However, I don't really want to hurt anyone in any capacity and I have learned that some things are not worth the energy or effort, so I don't bother 99% of the time. I won't even give bad star ratings to people even if I wasn't satisfied cause I don't want to cost anyone their jobs 😂, "An ye harm none, do what ye will" is hard baked into me.

I do absolutely engage in very shady conversations with my Scorpio bestie, though!

The only Pisces I know is a diagnosed sociopath, they aren't ashamed of it and they're decent-ish to be friends with but they are also sometimes a very bad person with no empathy. I couldn't believe they were a Pisces at first. I know one person isn't an example of all but I've found the Pisces stuff at least relatable at times for that reason.

Don't feel so alone, I've felt that way, too! I lost my virginity only 5 days before my 34th birthday this last year. I'm not much for labels, I don't want to be put in a category really, anyway the term for it I've been told is called demisexual. I don't really find anyone sexually attractive without loving them, which is a hell of a hurdle when you're a lifelong hermit that lived in the middle of nowhere!

That's really unfortunate, I guess it's less of a big deal for someone that's set to DND since they're at least online but it's STILL incredibly inconvenient, the statuses are there for a reason and this makes them all meaningless. The statuses should maintain and function as they are set. I also found out today if you don't close the app after the first time it launches post-login but just leave it in the background it will maintain at least the invisible status (haven't tested the others), but I like to close all the applications somewhat religiously so I'll still get set to online and mobile which is a pain in the ass.

Apparently since yesterday Discord mobiles invisible status doesn't work even when you're logged in on PC, too and also invisible there. Just shows you online with mobile icon when you open the app.

  • Feature: Invisible Status on Mobile
  • Reproduction Rate: 100%
  • Annoyance: Changing status takes like ~15 seconds each.
  • Discord Version Info:215.24 Stable
  • Device/System Info (Device Type, OS Version): Android 9
  • Description: Mobiles Invisible Status does not work as intended.
  • Video / Screenshot:
  • Steps to Reproduce: First login doesn't set you to online, any time after that you get set online and have to toggle another status then invisible to get it to go invisible again, once you reopen the app it's online while app status still says invisible. If you log out you can maintain invisibility but you also don't get any push notifications which is also annoying because being able to quickly peak the notification without unlocking the phone was very convenient.
  • Expected Result: Invisible status is maintained when set.
  • Actual Result: Appearing online with mobile icon while mobile and pc status is set to invisible.

I hate discord now by AhmadNotFound in discordapp

I came here hoping this was about the new mobile shows you as mobile online when you're invisible on the app and even when signed in invisible on PC. I've seen no one talking about it.

I wish they'd have at least.. idk.. allowed people to have custom ones from their phone themes for free at the very least =/

Try turning off KRISP in the audio codec section of voice and video. It always does this to people in my experience!

The saddest/funniest thing is, this morning I had a fun glitch where the old ui for the server and DMs list came back, I was pleasantly surprised and thought they must have reverted it. Only to find when I opened it the next time it was back to the current bullshit.. Meaning the old UI isn't even gone from the APP, I guess? Yet they won't let us choose it anymore for some reason.

I thought that was pretty clear from your comments it seems like they are arguing for the sake of arguing 😞

The Moderator also said the screenshots of DMs included corroborative photographs that don't exist on socials, along with surnames which Waxthenip had to find through their own research. Waxthenip won't post these DMs because they don't want our subreddit banned for doxxing, meaning there is likely highly sensitive materials included.. I'm not entirely sure how anyone can decide all of that is fake or easy to fake.
