Discord is rolling out Age-verification platform-wide next month.

If you don't verify you get pinned as a teen and have that experience.

I guess it's a good thing that they default to teen rather than just blocking you from the communities you're part of.

I'm sure my 13 yo will be yelling about some communities that aren't setup correctly and he cant get to.

Fun times to be had in my house. 🙄🤪

Say what you will about age verification, if it's done right (it never seems to be) it might be a good thing.
