I love Discord, and I'm glad for them to be doing well, but their recent blog post about BLM and their new "safety" initiatives as mentioned in this article are 100% performative.
Reporting abuse on Discord is a farcically complex process that involves enabling debug mode, copying an obscure message ID, and filling out a hard-to-find support website form. There's no technical reason you couldn't report abuse with a right-click action, or at least with a button in the app itself.[1]
Unless and until they fix that, any initiative Discord takes on "justice" or "safety" is empty words to me.
