So I went through Discord’s mandatory name change, and since then, the Android app doesn’t do notifications for anything.
I was using an older version of the app, and since I needed to log in anyway (I had forgotten the password), I used the opportunity to wipe the app’s data. But I set everything back, checked all settings, disabled and enabled everything again, and eventually uninstalled the app completely and installed the latest version. No Discord notifications.
I disabled battery optimisations, and my phone does not kill background apps. All my other messenger apps work fine.
Also, upon first launch, the app does show one “Google Play Availability” notification, so it’s obviously still capable of doing so.
I’m out of ideas. Suggestions? Anyone had this experience after changing the name?
Could Discord support be of any help?
Because everybody I need to ever talk to is on Discord. Found an interesting audio drama? They have a discord. A site for pirate motorsports stream? Discord. A github of some obscure program? Discord. A long dead videogame on an old platform? Discord. Matrix? Maybe like 1 in 100 of those groups. Jabber? Better luck with IRC.
And please don’t tell me to self host some bridge, if I hear another advice to self host something, I’ll snap. I swear self hosting is a fetish of half the people here.
I mean that tracks. Who do you think built all this? 😁
its not a Fetish, its common sense. Do you know where you are? An opem source, self-hosted free and federated network is going to confront freedom denying closed source proprietary surveillance capitalist software head on.
