#app: discord

[princessallura]

I have been contemplating this since the beginning of the month until finally I asked my nephew to help me out in working a Discord channel just for books up. This channel is dedicated to nothing but a love for reading from favorite genres to meeting new readers out there that could share your same interests.

This place is new and I am just getting it up and running. So, come and enjoy. :D

if there's anything i've learned from the current state of social media it's that this is one of the worst possible notifications you can receive upon opening an app

Treat anything on Discord as media that will be lost

Do not use Discord to host your files. Do not rely on Discord to preserve your text. DO NOT RELY ON DISCORD FOR ANY KIND OF PRESERVATION OR HOSTING!!

It CAN be lost, it WILL be lost! You must consider Discord as a part of the Core Internet, controlled by one company that hosts the servers.

I thought it was impressive at first that it replaced IRC, but now I am horrified. If the company behind Discord went under today, how many friends would you lose?

How many relationships? How much writing?

You may think this won't happen, but I remember when AIM went down and along with it, entire novels worth of interaction with my oldest friend.

IT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU. IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. NO COMPANY IS INFALLIBLE.

Back up your files! Download anything you've saved to Discord NOW, before the API changes go into effect! And DO NOT RELY ON THEM FOR HOLDING IMPORTANT FILES!

for gods sake please if you were involved in a riot or a violent protest or any kind of illegal direct action do NOT post about it on tumblr! especially not with pictures! you are putting yourself and your comrades at risk! if you intend to discuss your experience for the purpose of educating others, be as vague as possible about where you were and what the situation was. again, NO PICTURES!

Mood for the latest discord mobile update:

[king-carnivore]

For anyone needing to revert back to the prev version of discord before the rollout, search for Discord: Talk, Chat & Hang Out 204.18 - Stable (nodpi) (Android 7.0+)

You'll get a download page from APKMirror

You'll want to delete your current version of discord off your phone first BEFORE downloading and installing the APK, otherwise it won't work

Edit: Please go to your app store settings and disable auto update!!! Otherwise you'll continually get the rollout!

Social media execs when they go 5 minutes without a functionally useless update that makes the app less intuitive overall and offers no option to revert it

[guillotine-drop]

Really cool that discord pushed an update that made the UI an infinitely shittier cluttered mess that’s more hostile to its user base that you can’t even revert

Absolute cunts

Reverting the Discord UI update:

For IOS - For Android

[princessallura]

I feel horrible today. My throat has been hurting and my entire body is starting to ache. All I want to do is sleep. I wanted to try writing tonight, but that is not going to happen tonight. 

I also promised a friend I would pop up on Discord. Unfortunately, that is not going to happen either. I will have to apologize sometime this week. 

Anyway, I am heading off to prepare to sleep. I picked up a book from Netgalley but I am seeing a lot of bad reviews for it. I don't want the negativity to hinder my reading experience so I am going to try to not let it affect it.

I mean, I did take the advice from a ton of readers that said The Zodiac Academy was one of the best reads and I ended up hating it. I even placed it up there with The Twilight Saga as the most hated book series I have ever read.

And those who are reading this and love The Twilight Saga, I am not the friend you want. Sorry.

the fact that .001% of users get this means im extremely fucking unlucky

(okay this is an edit i repeat i edited this post) discord is just down on pc

[heehoothefool]

Cannot stand the new Mobile Discord UI, actually. Like. Why? Just why? I liked that it reflected Desktop, it was simple to understand and use and all the information I needed (locations of unread messages) were all in one spot instead of split up by buttons on a hot bar.

Also that DMs tab is fucking trash, dude, that triggers every part of my ADHD so bad, why does it look like a screen of emails what is WRONG with you people?

And why is the settings button so stupidly difficult to find? Like it should not be that small and take that many steps to get to. What the fuck?

I've already used a process to rollback to an older version of the app but like why can't there just be a toggle? Why can't we let apps be unique and have unique interfaces instead of trying to make them all work the fucking same? I use Discord because it ISN'T Amino or Instagram or Google Hangouts or Skype or Steam or anything like them! That's the point! That's the fucking point!

Stop fucking homogeonizing everything into Messenger App #57! This fucking sucks!

could you make a free blue and white carrd, maybe with a star theme?

i luv your carrds btw, they look so good! ♡

Blue & white star themed carrd !! free to use without cred/wm + non-pro

To use this template, join https://discord.gg/FQSDZ3Q9ZQ where I frequently post my f2u carrds. The carrd templates are in "examples" and if you're interested in a custom-made one, check out my plans! More benefits in the server : - Decor access - Promote your work/look for work! - Commission me/partner with our server - Learn about my current status - I have lots of proof of commissions - Find like-minded people in chat! - Customise your profile with roles - An aesthetically pleasing minimalistic srvr I'm especially active so feel free to ask me questions in chat/dm/tickets <3

This is what I wrote in the feedback section for the new discord update:

I absolutely hate that the messages like group chats and DMs are in a different tab than servers now. there was absolutely nothing broken about the way that it was laid out and displayed before, so there's no reason to "fix" it!! I also am sorely missing the ability to swipe left to look at all members of a server, the having to click on the top feels clunky and visually unpleasant. I hate being taken to an entirely different screen just to see who's online! it's an entirely unnecessary extra step that helps no one. the idea of "prioritizing messaging" by putting private messages and group chats in a tab seperate from servers is completely asinine when discord as a whole is a messaging service in and of itself! also, it's a small aesthetic change but rounding the corners of the servers when swiping to look at the servers at the side is unnecessary and unwelcome and overall incredibly displeasing to look at. speaking of swiping, making it so swiping left creates a reply to a message is the most unnecessary, confusing, and almost MALICIOUS feeling change yet, especially when swiping left had an entirely different function before. please listen to your user base and stop making so many changes that absolutely NO ONE is actually asking for and actively make the user experience worse. you have a good app, it is not broken, stop trying to fix things that don't need to be changed because you've continually only made things worse.
