Awesome! That's why I threw my gender away years ago, too much burden.

I wouldn’t have thought that discord would apply such good policies. Their target groups include transphobes and there will be a lot of moderating to do. It’s a really big step to make online gaming a safer space for everyone. 😊

That's gonna be impossible to enforce lol what a joke of a platform

So you want them to just allow it since they can't enforce it? How would that be better?

Because it's another thing discord mods can use to abuse their power. And common courtesy shouldn't be a rule, it should be natural
