what the hell are you doing that you keep being banned from discord?

It bans us from modifying its source code, sharing its exact and modified copies, using it for any purpose, etc.

We do not control it, anti-libre software.

Which software license do you think Discord is distributed under?

Why put the effort into such a hostile service?

Replied to the wrong comment?

Responding broadly to the thread of folks talking about userScripts & add-ons. This effort would be better put to getting folks to a different protocol where client modification & alternate clients are the norm.

Yeah, some people never learn.

I've been using a modified client for about 2 and a half years now without being banned.

Where's our legal right to modify and share its source code forever? We don't control it.
