Discord has 5 levels of user verification.
None.(none)
Verified email. (Low)
Verified email + more than 5 minutes old account. (Medium)
Verified email + >5 mins old account + member of server for more than 10 mins. (High)
Verified email + >5 mins old account + server member >10 mins + verified phone number. (Highest)
Server admins can set the level. Some server sizes or types (community severs etc.) have a discord-mandated minimum level to qualify for the server type.
Normally (Medium) or (High) security is more than enough. Servers that experience raiding or high levels of trolling are recommended to choose (Very High) security as it makes it harder to make multiple accounts and evade bans or brigade a server.
Discord store the number. The server never sees those details.
Servers that ask for ID to ensure you are over age, are doing that in their own, and probably illegally handling that data, without adequate security.
The server sets the security level. Discord does the enforcing. It IS discord asking for the phone number. But only because the server asked Discord to. But the server definately doesn’t see your phone number.
I run a game community server, and normally have security set at medium.
If raided, it goes to High.
If persistently trolled by a user or users that are ban evading (has happened only once), I turn it to highest for a bit.
But I turn it back down after a bit.
A bigger server might not get that luxury.
If a server has stupid high security settings, chances are they have active troublemakers.
I stayed dry and fully clothed while building a sandcastle and watched the locals go swimming in wetsuits. Can’t remember where, somewhere on the coast of Claire or Galway.
I was staying in Doolan, so it must have been Bishops quater beach. It was in 2004, so I could be wrong.
Goes out partying in the late 90’s.
Stimulants were taken.
All my friends were wacked out. I got home and did chores.
So much coffee and cigarettes. My coding time was fueled by them.
I actually have a harder time sleeping without coffee, as the coffee quiets my brain a bit.
Age 43: diagnosed AuDHD.
Psychiatrist: so I’m guessing you have an affinity for stimulants.
Me: Ohhhhhhhh! That explains things.
Now I have a Concerta prescription, and can function like never before.
Watch them not implement the per-resource password access properly.
Yeah man. What the hell!? Just going and making a nice app that works well.
What an ass.
That makes more sense than my initial take for sure.
Oof. They got me.
I guess my congrats go to you.
For Sync users looking for the setting:
Pepsi, Coke, or Budget no-name cola? Windows, MacOS, or Linux? Sometimes it’s a personal preference.
I like the UX of Sync. I’ve made QOL feature requests in the past and they’ve been implemented. For an early beta, it’s extremely well polished. I can afford to support the developer for a quality app, so I do.
I can certainly see the merits of each app, and have used a few of them. I just prefer Sync.
But that’s me. It should have no bearing on what you or anyone else uses.
Confirmed.
Big Sync fan here, because LJDawson actually listens to user feedback and implements good ideas.
Personally I’m a Sync Ultra subscriber because I value paying for the support and extra features, and don’t mind compensating the app maker for making my Lemmy UX experience familiar and enjoyable.
However, and this is important, do not feel pressured to use an app because it is popular if something does not appeal to you (like the pricing, or paying to remove ads, for example). There are plenty of apps that are free or significantly cheaper, that remain ad free. All of them have merits.
Sync users alone can’t fill the fediverse with the content that is required. We’d be extremely stupid to think we were anything more than just another fediverse user. Everyone’s contribution is equally important.
Do it your way, or it’s just another Reddit.
Since when is Sync claiming to be FOSS?
I’m actually finding the experience in Chrome browser to be pretty good.
Definately waiting on Sync though.
