especially when multiple people that are entirely innocent are hit including for example shibboleet who additionally owns Discord Nitro.
This is the most unjust thing I've ever seen, and would be glad to see someone make a discord clone that can be self-hostable. If the whole situation doesn't get resolved, I think I'll be leaving discord. Like, who says that they won't do this to me?

For example, there's staff members that immediately nuke your whole account if you even ping them once.
Plus, not to mention, here's an announcement noirscape made on the FreeShop discord server:
@everyone - hey guys. Sorry for the ping so early in the morning, but this is really important for your safety if you live in the United States.
In the new Discord TOS Update, they **added an arbitration clause in it** that evoked your right to sue Discord (you must go through an arbitrator) and to congregate as a class action lawsuit.
While you can find the exact clauses in the gist below, what you _should_ be doing right __***now***__ is sending an email to `arbitration-opt-out@discord.com` from the _registered email on your discord account_, saying you want to opt-out. I'd also recommend including your username/discriminator and ID in the email. Deleting your account will not opt you out of these terms
__Why does this matter?__
Without the ability to congregate for a class action lawsuit, if Discord ever leaks your data or does something catastrophically bad to a large portion of the population you have no way to representatively sue together without each of you individually suing via the arbitrator.
__Why should I care? Other companies do it too!__
By learning about this I hope that you will be more conscious about these arbitration clauses and how anti-consumer they are. You can't change the past, but you surely can't predict the future either.

I've had my own fair share of bullshit with discord too. My numerous bug reports were invalidated because "they're Windows 7 exclusive". In fact, they're the reason I upgraded to W10 in the first place: to avoid some of the bugs I had.
I have some more things to rant about, but I can't remember at this point. I'll update my post later
