Privacy intrusive "feature" Active Now

JokeFeature

• December 16, 2020 03:32

hello, I used to have private calls with friends or made groups with them but group calls call everyone and that's not always the best choice. so I decided to create a server for us where some users would stream the games they played for us. I'd at times keep myself on appear invisible to avoid talking / spending time with other people. the issue was that now every friend on my list could see me in Active Now when I was on Appear Offline in a private server they were NOT a part of. this breach in privacy is literally disgusting and it a great example on how not to implement utterly useless broken "features". I am shocked how after so many complains you still didn't implement a off switch for this or better, remove it.

  For as long as Active Now now exists, I don't believe this beeing a Bug! And being shown even while Invisible is INTENDED as it was never changed by the developers since it was introduced!

  There is only 1 solution for this "Problem": an option to disable it! OR implement it in a way that you are NOT shown while being invisible regardless of what you are doing in Discord...
