Forced arbitration means any legal disputes you may have with Discord must be resolved through a single third party mediator, who 99% of the time is chosen by, and will rule in favor of, the corporation/Discord. This effectively removes all your legal rights as a consumer, because arbitration decisions are legally binding and non-appealable.
The new ToS goes into effect April 15th, 2024.
YOU CAN OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION. You must email arbitration-opt-out@discord.comBEFORE MAY 15TH (30 days after ToS effective date) with your username stating that you wish to opt out of the arbitration clause. Once May 15th passes you are bound to arbitration with Discord forever.
What makes you think the Dev will notice a Lemmy post or will even know what Lemmy is, if they're not even using git for reports and are using a chat client for something that it should have never been used for.
i genuinely think compiling the bugs with some details in a youtube video and posting it on youtube would be more useful than finding that discord and joining it lmao
i genuinely don't understand why the move has happened, it only seems more annoying than something like github, especially if you work on open source software.
If you want it to be an method of communication, that's fine. But the primary is actually insane.
