> the process is exactly the same as it is for me on just about any other site/system when I log in on an untrusted device This is not my experience. Logging into Reddit/Twitter/Hacker News etc is nowhere near that level of convoluted. > you inflicted that on yourself did you not? That's like stating that an assault victim is inflicting damage on themselves by choosing not to comply with their assailant. Okay, perhaps not the best analogy, but hopefully you get the point. But no, I don't want to login at all. However Discord decided that I must, if I want to access info, and Discord imposed this procedure onto me, unless I comply with their (what I consider to be unreasonable) dance.

I don't buy your analogy as being at all equivalent. You literally had two choices, chose the hard option and then complained that it was hard. I totally understand making a tradeoff if you think that it preserves privacy (which I don't agree with as I explained above) but I don't think it's reasonable to do that and then complain about it.

  > but I don't think it's reasonable to do that and then complain about it. "Entry into this establishment requires an exorbitant 20 minute procedure, or you can bypass that by showing nudie pics of yourself." Me: why do I have to go through this 20 minute procedure? You: you don't. I understand that not everyone is comfortable with showing nudie pics, but I don't think it's reasonable to complain about the alternative. Sorry, hard disagree with you, but I see that you're set on your opinion, and I'm set on mine, so let's just leave it at that.

  They chose the option that did not imply sharing too much information with discord. The fact that it's hard is mainly because it's not discord's preferred option. So no, it's a perfectly valid choice to make and discord is being a pita. Setting up time-based 2FA is simple. Setting up network (!! email !!) based 2FA is stupid and cumbersome.
