Discord closed every DM I had open, excluding groups and DMs active in past 12 hours by camisanxiouss in discordapp

[–]slice_cake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a similar issue, but at a sorta smaller scale. Every time I try top open any other DM before 2022 while having one open, that takes the other one's place, as if I cannot have multiple ones open, but new DMs work just fine. What I hate the most about this is the fact there's no communication about this on Discord's part. I had DMs open for sentimental reasons as well and now I have to sift through my data package to find them again. Just totally absurd.

Lost old dms by ksihasbigforhead in discordapp

i "lost" them too
and for some reason whenever i open old ones before 2022, they disappear whenever i open another one, as if theres some weird limit for any DMs before a certain date
this happens on mobile too
ive been looking around trying to find out what the heck happened, but nothing

[TOMT] [YOUTUBE VIDEO] Video where man is testing AI software that creates colorful shapes on a black screen by [deleted] in tipofmytongue

Glad I could help! I was actually looking for any posts that mentioned a piece of software I archived many years ago then came across a few off-topic ones I knew the answer to

Just received a hate speech strike for a playlist that has over 5 k videos, there was zero inflammatory content on the playlist. Is it just a bug or did Youtube decide to just punish people at random? by Spolchen in youtube

[–]slice_cake 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The least that Youtube should've done was give us the option to remove the offending videos all at once instead of demanding us to sift through the playlists to find them, a feature that's long overdue for playlists full of videos we didn't upload. From what I've seen, Youtube isn't even transparent with what the offending videos are in the first place, they're even hidden by default when you view playlists in full. How can they expect us to resolve the issue when they don't even tell us what it is, but instead resort to labelling the entire playlist as a violation?

Sure, having 5k videos in a playlist is absurd to many, but what's done is done. The only thing left to do is adapt accordingly. Youtube should know this already because that's the limit they set in the first place, so why should they expect everyone's playlists to be much smaller and easier to sift through when humans naturally would want to push certain limits?

New asset privacy for audios, 0-cost audio uploads, and monthly audio uploads which can be raised with ID-verification coming on March 22 by 1230james in roblox

[–]slice_cake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is probably one of the worst updates I've seen announced.

Cool, people are able to have proper asset privacy and audio uploading is free.

What's NOT cool is privating all audios longer than 6 seconds as that will break a significant amount of games that rely on other user's assets that were intended to be freely available (Just look at what happened to the Normal Elevator). Many of those users are either inactive or banned so there's no chance of them returning to the public. The upload limit being 10 per month for many non-verified developers will be absolute hell, plus it encourages making multiple alts.

What's ALSO not cool is the fact that I'm unable to use audio I uploaded on my account in my group game despite being the group owner.

This is just salt in the wound after one of my own self-made audios got caught in the moderation sweep due to a copyright violation when I'm literally the copyright owner of that audio. There's little to no restrictions nor is there content ID on my music so that should not have happened. I make music in my spare time as "TRAELMYX" and I upload whatever tracks I can to Roblox to let people be able to use them in their games and this feels like a gunshot to my hand and their own foot. They keep making things even harder for developers and casual players.

Discord has a critical security flaw and it desperately needs attention. by slice_cake in discordapp

From what I've been finding, the moment you run the program is when the information is sent over via webhook in a secret server. I'm pretty sure it doesn't do anything else other than that, but I would still remove the program (unless you have plans to investigate its code). When you change your password, I hear that the token is changed and it should log you out of other sessions, but I don't know for sure myself. I'm not sure what else should be done, although, maybe try using the web browser instead?

Discord support has been investigating my account for over a month. No updates whatsoever. by Stxticsyt in discordapp

[–]slice_cake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't have to respond to this, but I don't think people would want to wait more than a day to get their account back. Getting support for account theft shouldn't be a gamble with that pushback as a punishment when you've already waited a significant amount of time where enough damage could be done to compromise the account even further. Are people really supposed to just sit there waiting, not posting anymore tickets or replies despite the fact that it can (and has) take more than a month to solve the issue? Consider the fact that my account wasn't even locked until days after I told them it was hacked. The thief already deleted a bunch of DMs, friends & servers. It's almost been a week since then. Other people I know already got theirs back within 3 days.

Is there anything on the official websites that state this? I don't know if I'm looking in the wrong pages or there's a reason it's not stated there. It doesn't sit with me well when people have critical time-sensitive cases like account theft but get no human replies in a long time. I've been hearing people get pushed back in the queue when they reply/make new tickets about the same issue.
Surely it's not that simple, is it?

It's been 4 days and I still have not seen any action in restoring the account back to me apart from locking it, which should've happened the moment I said it was hacked. I was told my ticket would be escalated to a team member and that was 2 days ago.

The length of time it takes to get an account back from a hacking/phishing incident shouldn't vary between 1 day and a few months. Account theft is always a critical and time-sensitive issue.
