I can’t ditch discord. They won’t even let me in via browser because I “failed the captcha”.

(Not that they’d tell me this somewhere in their UI, this is the server response.)

my failed attempts at registering on discord:

  • use temporary email: locked out
  • use real email with VPN: locked out
  • use real email without VPN and Firefox: locked out
  • use real email, no VPN, le lion(brave): registered. join a community. community requires phone verification. deny it. locked out.

every damn time they require a phone number.

I'm not doubting that some servers do, but I've yet to run into one myself

Discord itself arbitrarily requires a phone number to register, which is already enough of a hurdle.

I'm pretty sure I never had to give them my phone number, though it has been more than a few years since I signed up

Phone verification is the worst!

Only the big ones

Same. This happened to me so many times, I just can't suffer it any more.
