Big Privacy Update (Patreon)

Hello, I hope you're all doing well! pets for the whole community

As many of you know, Discord is moving toward mandatory ID verification. I strongly disagree with the idea of a platform collecting sensitive legal documents from its entire user base.

Since our Discover server is tagged NSFW, every single one of you would be forced to hand over your ID just to remain a part of this space. I find the "protecting children" narrative to be a thin veil for what this actually is: a move toward harvesting more expensive, better-indexed data for corporate profit.

Our community deserves privacy, and I refuse to let our safety be commodified. Because of this, I want us to find a new home together. I am looking for an alternative to Discord as soon as possible, and I need YOUR help.

Please look for platforms that value privacy and are trustworthy. Feel free to DM me with your thoughts:

• What is your personal stance on this?

• Which platforms are you already using?

• What would be the easiest way for you to transition?

In the meantime, please follow me on my other socials so we don't lose touch. Discord could become inaccessible for many of you as early as March, and I’d be heartbroken to lose this community.

• New Telegram

• Bluesky

It’s a shame it’s come to this, but the spirit of our community is stronger than any one corrupt platform. Let’s stick together and find something better.

With love, Kun

PS:
I wanted to write a devlog today, but I'm sick and don't have energy right now. Hopefully next week! There's also going to be some new changes to patreon soon including 1 new tier and a change of how I will publish JOI's
