  • I’m sorry, but it’s probably in your best interest to do some research and actually read the discord Terms of Service and Privacy Policy before arguing about something you lack knowledge in. Creators of a Discord server are not responsible for members’ data that they send to Discord. That relationship is between Discord and the Member, not the creator of a server. Any “contractual agreement” you are talking about is covered when you click “I agree” when creating an account, the devs’ accounts included.

    This is a ridiculous argument that has a correct answer that Discord themselves will tell you.

  • What apps require root that you want? I would highly advise against rooting if you can help it, because especially if you don’t know what you’re doing, there is very high potential to brick your device or open up security issues. I would recommend learning what root actually means and what it entails, and learning everything that happens when you root so you can decide for yourself if that’s something that is necessary. Rooting modern hardware just to run an app is not really all that important nowadays. You might as well buy an android that has a custom OS already installed centered around privacy if that’s your thing.

    Additionally, to actually answer your question, adb is not root. It is just a development bridge that lets your PC talk to your phone, so you can push apps or do other development related stuff. It just happens to be a part of the toolset when rooting.


  • Replace the context of this about art thievery, and guides about how to steal art from museums, then think about how it sounds. You’re right, discussing those things would technically be legal, but c’mon now. I don’t care or judge if you do these things, but discussing how to commit crimes in a public forum, no matter what it is, shouldn’t be much of a debate among administrators to decide to ban or not. It’s safer to just do that even if it’s technically legal. If the cops come knocking, why would they bother lawyering up for these communities when they can just hand them off to another instance that would rather advocate for them?

    If you’re against the decision, the entire point of the fediverse is to have the freedom to hop to a different instance if you disagree with its administration, so why not find one you are better aligned with? Keeping the fediverse happy as a whole with less user conflict is more important than user retention per instance; no one should feel locked in.
