A lot of communities only exist on Discord. And no, you can't just find alternatives if they're locally based or similar.

    So stop using it? Yes, its hard... 1)Spool up server not using discord. 2) tell people to join.

    Some of these groups have dozens or hundreds of people on them, no way I'll get even a fraction of them to. I don't have the time or desire to start a new community from scratch.

    As much as I hate it, people join Discord because that's where all the communities are and they stay because all their other communities are there.

    Most people won't care for the simple reason that most people don't use Discord for porn and will never need to access a NSFW server. They will never need to verify.

    I'm in the UK where the Discord age verification is already live for several months. I was never even prompted to verify.
