Yeah phone number kinda sucks here ever since it requires your govt. ID just to register. Back then I could just buy any random number and activate it.
I actually paid an sms verification website
What service did you use? I'm looking for similar service but I don't trust recommendation from articles enough.
There are captchas actually, which I'd filled 3 times. First one when I just logged in, second one when I was forced to change my username, and last one when I joined a server.
That's what I'd love to do, but everyone and their grandma keeps making communities in Discord.
Man, that looks so cute. Also really chonky.
Apparently a lot of people, judging by how popular Threads gets just in a few days.
Tbh there's no way Meta will try to federate with this instance anyway, judging by what kind of content is posted here.
I didn't even know you changed the registration. It still feels the same to me here. Not sure if that's a good thing or not.
Kinda worrying tbh. With Meta being Meta, I'm afraid they're trying to capitalize the whole Fediverse and farming more data at the same time. I really hope other instances start defederating them. Let them be their own walled garden.
how the admins are planning to introduce government ID verifications
Yiiiiikes wtf, imagine sharing your ID to some strangers just to see some porn.
I'm very interested though currently I'm not living alone so I don't wanna risk it. It's also illegal here so imports are no-go. I tried looking at local stuff online but unfortunately the selections are not good enough, the websites look sketchy, and much more expensive.
Thanks for that link. I've been looking for that kind of service but I don't trust the websites that show up in search engine's top results.
