Everything I've seen so far today could also be summarized as "Discord chose on their own to interpret the published App Store rules without seeking comment from Apple", which would be quite a different story from the one that's popularly assumed. I wish that I could find a missing piece of evidence to contradict or confirm that. So, then:
Has Discord confirmed that they discussed their intentions with Apple prior to publishing these changes?
(If they did not, then that opens the door for many more uncomfortable questions for Discord.)

- floatingatoll 6y agoThe quoted message says: "Sorry about this, but App Store rules say you can’t join age restricted servers on iOS. Please use the desktop app or website to join this server." This does not clarify matters, as both of the following three contradictory statements all agree with it: 1. "Our lawyers informed us that the app store rules prohibit this, and we chose not to discuss or contest our lawyers' interpretation with Apple before proceeding." 2. "Apple both informed us that the app store rules prohibit this, and we chose not to appeal that ruling with Apple before proceeding." 3. "Apple both informed us that the app store rules prohibit this, but we exhausted all avenues of appeal before proceeding." Which is it, Discord?
