:The article is largely about Discord's co-founder, Stanislav Vishnevskiy, expressing concerns with enshittification. However, the new CEO being a former high-up executive from ''two'' exploitative game companies doesn't exactly instill confidence in me. Act-Blizz is quite infamous for doing a lot of anti-consumer practices- and remember that Discord was far from perfect before the change in leadership.

:I don't think the linked article is relevant enough to reference in this wiki article, but it contains some notable updates on the situation. [[User:Vindicator4021|- V (Vindicator4021)]] ([[User talk:Vindicator4021|talk]]) 23:57, 24 June 2025 (UTC)

::Thanks for the update, when wiki-relevant stuff begins to happen, we'll likely reference this article later on. [[User:JamesTDG|JamesTDG]] ([[User talk:JamesTDG|talk]]) 06:38, 25 June 2025 (UTC)

== Reg. "Introduction of forced arbitration (Mar. 2024)" ==

An arbitration clause has been present in the ToS since 2017 as evident by [https://web.archive.org/web/20170521173532/https://discordapp.com/terms#:~:text=ARBITRATION this archive], therefor that section is inaccurate and should probably be removed and/or edited to reflect that.

== Security risk: Presenting cryptic "direct link" in article ==

The "direct link" to assist with account deletion seems like a security risk for the reader. The link is to a cryptic domain ( dis.gd ), not the primary one for this company. Anybody could edit that URL on the wiki, substituting one that lead to a malicious website. I think the link should be removed unless somebody knows how to make the link secure.

"Direct link subject to user instance - http://dis.gd ..."
