My source is this Tumblr post, which caused me to check my settings because I just got the latest major update.

I found these settings enabled in my discord app:

I know ideally one wouldn’t use Discord at all, but so many of the nice little people in my phone are on Discord.

BTW it’s never a good idea to allow apps access to your contacts, other than your actual phone and SMS apps.

Stay safe!

      Yep. I can’t even see why, probably something in the stuff they deleted. How bizarre!

        This particular OP tends to be fairly contentious, I’m surprised Beehaw didn’t ever take action on his account.

          Beehaw doesn’t ban you for having an opinion loudly.

          What it does address typically is when users are horrifically disrespectful or rude…which usually the OP was not.

          I guess they just reached their limit of patience.

        Seems like they really thought they were right and argued with people. If only they realized it takes 2 people to argue.

      So like, while we’re here.

      I feel like this style of leaving closed or abandoned threads like this up is… not great.

      The front page is slow enough when it’s just Beehaw that one post like this really kinda sticks out. I feel like as a smaller community it might be better when something like this happens to like, delete the thread after a certain length of time so it doesn’t show up at all.
