Discord Begins Testing Facial Scans for Age Verification
Some countries have passed strict new laws dictating youth access to digital platforms.

Reminder that we have a european alternative called Revolt we can always switch to!
Another alternative is Element for chatting and Teamspeak for Calls/Screenshare!
Element/Matrix does calls and screen share also by the way!
(Teamspeak can do screen share? That’s news to me!)
I just checked and indeed it does! Didn't know that before, although I do think Revolt is more user friendly to non-tech people so will probably be a better choice for people to migrate to.
Teamspeak 6 released a month or so ago and has Peer2Peer screenshare, it works great!
I read that Revolt doesn't have screen-sharing, which is a deal-breaker for my group. I wonder how well Matrix's is...
Element does it natively? As in, it's a feature of Element and not some integration with a different tool? I didn't even expect calls to be a part of the matrix protocol yet.
in the past they were using a jitsy integration, they are in the process of migrating to their in-house element call
I haven't tried it yet but opening Element in browser it does have a call option
Element really needs to get push to talk. It's an incredibly basic feature to be missing, and for me personally and I'm sure others the lack of it is a deal breaker.
