You ARE anonymous unless you used your real name or you linked your account to stuff like Facebook, Twitter or Steam You'll be fine
Brayden Hernandez
only losers who have no friends irl use discord
Henry Cox
It is exactly like Internet relay chat except a little more media rich, combined with separate voice channels, depending on what bots you invite you get different features attributed to your small fiefdom- Which is exactly what it the server. If you have come from IRC it is just like walking into the worst network administrators ever
Ryder Perry
No it is not anonymous at all. Conversations across different servers can be attributed to one account
I just joined different servers from different people and make sure no one i know is there, it's really not that hard
Levi Reyes
Don't use it. It's non-free software and the devs have a lot to hide with regards as to where your personal data, including chatlogs, is being sent. If you enjoy having anonymous third parties mine your conversations for data then by all means, listen to the zoomers in this thread and download your doom.

This is an user's brain on discord. It is not a pretty sight to behold.... Seriously though do not engage with anyone on here using non anonymous platforms.
I agree that it's shitty. IRC is much more straightforward, I miss it.

Adding anyone on Jow Forums to something is always awful, i remember when people used steam groups like 6 or something years ago the Jow Forums related ones were always pure cancer with people spouting memes nonstop for approval

>join Jow Forums minecraft hardcore mode discord >get a pm from someone who joined solely to shill their 100+ people discord
Congratulations, you just described literally every social media site/app. Your two options now are to be a total hermit or bite the bullet to actually maintain social ties and develop friendships.
Having friends is more valuable to me than preventing some tech company in San Francisco from selling the fact that I'm into traps to Google.
