Yeah that’s definitely an issue. Realistically the only solution there is just to migrate such a community to a new home (fedi serves this need well). But admittedly one of the great boons of discord was discoverability, and that will be lost elsewhere without intervention.

A popular alternative only arises if you migrate to it before it’s popular. There are multiple platforms already available that resemble discord already

The general comment and title is simply untrue. They will require verification in cases of known adult or censored content, and in NSFW channels and servers. “Regular” content and spaces are untouched.

The article doesn’t say Larian is using it for concept art.

Those were hypothetical statements from people outside the studio.

There’s nothing to complain about here. Games require tons of placeholders, in art, dialogue, and code. They will iterate dozens of times before the final product, and given Larian’s own production standards, there’s no chance anything but the most inconsequential or forgotten items made by an LLM will stay in.

Don’t delete, it’s just more evidence for support of an option…
