This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I'm legitimately paranoid about this scenario, especially since I'm in a couple of ERP servers, and I was friends with ReploidRevo.. yes THAT ReploidRevo, and never knew about what he did until after his downfall went viral. (Shocked the Hell out of me because he seemed so normal and on the up and up)

I mean, if you’re on 4chan…

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 hours ago

This was my first thought.

Obviously did some shit then trying to gain sympathy like omg I was banned for being nice.

Never understood why anyone would want to pay 100$ a year for discord, the paid version doesnt give you that much imo

Personally, Discord has facilitated a long distance relationship with my now wife, and nearly ten years of weekly TTRPG games. I don't mind the cost because they cannot provide that service for free forever, and I think it's worth it for what I get out of it. The other benefits they add for paying are almost just bonuses to me after that.

you could also pay to host some shit like mumble.

You don't wanna pay $100 for a bunch of useless stickers and random features that don't need to be in a chat program? Whaaaaaat? That's weird. ^/s^

[–] [email protected] 17 points 10 hours ago

Which is a good monetation system. Premium users barely get anything but still enough to pay, while free users can do pretty much everything too.

I pay $30 a year for Nitro Basic. It's only $2.50 a month and worth it to me with how much I use it.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 12 hours ago

I spam 500mb uploads... it kinda makes sense to me

[–] [email protected] 10 points 11 hours ago

personally the $3 a month nitro is worth it for me, considering how much I use it. I know Lemmy hates anything capitalist but a coffee a month isnt that much

[–] [email protected] 11 points 10 hours ago

I have a Discord but I hear a lot about how easily you can get banned, largely on the whims of the people running a single server, so I've always been a bit reluctant to use it.

Also, I find it genuinely disturbing how much information all these companies have about you and your stuff.

Discord usually just uses some bullshit allegations when they feel like kicking accounts down

This is one of the bigger reasons I don't want to use social media controlled by a corporation, it means they can choose to cut me off from people at their discretion, which will probably be based on what is convenient and easy for them.

This, the second you aren't profitable, they put you in the modern day version of solitary confinement.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

And as Reddit has shown they will shut you down for expressing any political opinion they don't like.

Luigi is an American hero. Whether he did it or not is irrelevant. It's what he stands for.

Which six companies? Let's assume we count "social media" as "media".

Meta, Musk Rat & Co, Google, what else?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 12 hours ago

They’re banning people for upvoting now lol

[–] [email protected] 140 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago) (2 children)

Lost yearly Nitro and all my friends

That’s sadder than he seems to understand it is.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

I know "lol anon has no friends" is le epic funny meme but by friends, they obviously meant their contacts.

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

I have a lot of people, I'd consider friends, that I only communicate with through discord. If I lost my account, I'd likely never hear from them again. Kinda get it.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 hours ago

Idk might just be talking about his online friend's. But knowing 4chan maybe not

[–] [email protected] 37 points 18 hours ago (3 children)

On this topic: I currently have installed on my phone and computer: slack, zoom, MSTeams, element, discord, Facebook messenger and signal to communicate in various projects and friends. What is this madness?!

Same happened to me but with animal cruelty content or something. I tried to get the account back but turns out it was a "ban wave" so a lot of other people who got banned but were innocent were doing the same so discords services got overwhelmed by the appeals. Maybe they should have realized after that that this kinda banning is a horrible approach.
