Reverse the iOS block on NSFW servers for 18+ users

Orannis

[In reference to new changes as per https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500005292701-Accessing-an-NSFW-Server-FAQ ]

It's insane that you would actively prevent access to legitimate users on a mobile platform. A significant amount of my Discord use is on iOS, including several servers that would be considered NSFW, including one that I moderate. It's also entirely possible that there are server owners who ONLY use discord via iOS who will be completely locked out by this change. This is like using a flamethrower to kill an ant, please reverse this absurd decision.

    Due to this absolute braindead solution I will be cancelling my Nitro subscription. I will not give a single cent to Discord until this is reversed.

    This is absolutely ridiculous, they’ve implemented it. I can no longer access nsfw content on my iPhone. And while they did add a toggle option for desktop, I don’t own a desktop. And have no means of being on a private desktop to opt-in to allow to nsfw viewing. The web browser option was apparently not within the realm of possibilities. 😡

    Discord has implemented a fix towards this, and I have a solution for users without desktop:

    On Mobile:

    Visit the login website for discord, log in accordingly, rotate your screen horizontal, and then follow the same procedure as you would when enabling 18+. Settings (Gear Icon), Privacy and Safety, "Allow Access to NSFW Servers on iOS: On".

    On Desktop:

    Discord Web or Discord App, Settings (Gear Icon), Privacy and Safety, "Allow Access to NSFW Servers on iOS: On".

    I found no issue doing the mobile trick myself, I won't be checking this thread at all since I'm lazy so do enjoy yourself.

    Activating the NSFW toggle does NOT grant access to all NSFW servers on iOS. Any that are arbitrarily deemed "too NSFW" by Discord will still be blocked, regardless of whether it's been enabled. The only way around this is to not upgrade past v68 of the app.

    Wow. This is complete and utter garbage. Authoritarian dictators.

    I’ll be switching to a different platform.

    The Toggle option is a joke I used it since Halloween and now it’s blocked all my content
