If they want to stop piracy they should improve their service rather. Piracy is a service problem.

... Tenor gifs...? Seriously...?

Anyway, stop using Discord. Learn to set up a Matrix server.

    I can barely even use matrix. They need figure out their UI and UX before it can become a serious option.

    I spent multiple days setting up a matrix server, getting Livekit working and dealing with that abysmal dogshit matrix authentication system (MAS)

    I joined a voice channel and something broke, I cannot leave it

    That was six months ago, I was still apparently in that voice channel when I gave up and deleted the whole stack a week ago

    All the clients I tried were a nightmare in their own special way :(

    I really tried

    It is a serious option. You were probably using a shitty client.

    I would recommend Sable, as it's very Discord-like. I'm sure others have experienced good clients with features perhaps more specific to an anime community.

    I believe the Frieren Discord was also shutdown and had to be recreated

    Well, it's no surprise that they take down servers where people share torrents, etc. But pirated GIFs? Are you sure they're not exaggerating here just to be safe? Anyway, ani.social's chatroom is on Matrix, so I don't think we need to worry (not that I encourage using it for sharing pirated content - that's probably a bad idea)

    BTW, it's #space:ani.social if anyone's curious

    I’m in a bunch of the actual fansubbing discords and none of them seem to be affected so I’m guessing it just ones trying to be official communities for the show or whatever

    At the same time, #Crunchyroll has a monopoly on #anime overseas, and removes most #physicalmedias from the store. And engineered tragedy, it feels like.
