• Discord has been using ML to determine the gender and age of some of its users

  The beginning of enshitification of discord (while 100% expected) for some reason hits harder then any other service I've used throughout all these years. It has entirely replaced social media for me. It just felt more organic to me then anything else. So... Since I've heard about the ads coming to discord, and I have looked into alternatives.

• Discord is nuking Nintendo Switch emulator devs and their entire servers

  Yeah I've been using them for my indie conferences since 2020. I recently argued [0] that it's not the Year for Matrix, even if Discord now has ads and is doing sketchy stuff typical of enshitification.

  Reminder that librapay exists, and their developers are only paid from user donations, just like anyone else on the platform. https://liberapay.com/ (I only wish their CC costs could be reduced a bit to make micropayments viable). - Source: Hacker News / 11 days ago

• The Asymmetry of Open Source: "Users need open source projects, but open source projects do not need users"

  It seems a little suspicious that the person sharing those posts isn't building an open platform himself -- why not make it more open /u/paydevs ? I think Liberapay is a great way to spontaneously pay OSS developers.
