Steps

1: Use browser Addon uBlock Origin or other extension for picking and disabling HTML such as Tampermonkey etc.

  1. Open Discord in Browser

  2. Pick and make filter against elements:

discord.com##.scrollerBase__65223.thin__62e51.content_b28aab
discord.com##.rootWithShadow_d20cd6.fullscreenOnMobile__05784.small_f8e677.root_a28985
discord.com##.withLayer__29ace.backdrop__1a911

NOTE: This will also bug the preview for files when you click them, but it’s still usable.

For those of you who wish to backup Discord posts and conversations, you have a few choices.

  1. If you are very tech-savvy you can transfer everything over to a Matrix Self-Host, then take it offline so that it functions as a storage medium.

  2. You can use several open source tools such as Tyrrrz’s discord chat exporter

Be warned: leaking your Discord User Authentication Token could be potentially harmful.

    Don’t forget to email the opt out notice for forced arbitration before May 15th, as that can apply regardless of whether you delete your account or not.

      Yikes btw, their arbitration agreement is rather nasty. A bunch of weird convoluted rules about mass arbitration. Some situations where it looks like they could demand in person appearance at hearings. Rather intimidating language about settlement offers made just before the arbitration hearings – basically if you turn down an offer and then get awarded less than what they offered you’re on the hook for paying all their fees from the time of the settlement offer, etc.

          I love the cyberpunk future where even courts are privatized.

            As an American, I like the general idea of private courts provided:

            • both parties consent to the court used
            • any decisions can be appealed to a public court
            • private judges must be actively practicing (passed the bar) with a public record
            • if the dispute is between a customer and the company, the company shoppers any costs, unless a public judge rules otherwise if the customer appeals

            Binding arbitration agreements suck though, and I think they are or should be unconstitutional.

      How does one do this?

        You have to give notice via email to [email protected] that you’re opting out of the arbitration agreement by May 15 (or 30 days after starting a new account). I included a short bit stating this was a notice opting out of the arbitration agreement and then my name, etc
