Older android versions 126.21 and any prior killswitched

Ledger
Until very recently an option people had if they didn't want to use the latest Android version of the app (and justifiably so with the tons of issues that it has) was to simply keep running version 126.21 which was the last native android update before all this reactnative nonsense. This is no longer possible as apparently the API was updated so older versions of the app are now stuck on "Connecting..." and are rendered essentially useless. Why are you forcing your users to update to your horrible iOS-hamfisted-onto-android version of the app? Those of us who chose to stay behind did so even at the cost of feature parity with iOS or potential security issues or whatever other reasons you may prefer us to update because we would much rather have a functional application with a clean UI, behaviors and animations that doesn't drain your battery like crazy. The strat was to stick with an older but perfectly functional version of the app until you guys got around to fixing the current version, and by then we would happily update. Except it hasn't been fixed and now we're not given a choice. The latest version has seen some improvements but is still unacceptable compared to 126.21. Please re-allow older android versions to be used or actually make the reactnative version of the app good

    100% agree, they should either let us use old versions or let Android users go back to the old layout cause it isn't letting us do the same things as we used to

    The new discord layout looks like ass. I loved it when discord didn't act like google and force you to update their apps and they would still work, even if they didn't have all the "fancy" features as modern versions do, and they sure as hell didn't have as much problems. My phone lags really bad on newer versions of discord from how heavy the app has gotten. Version 58.2 has been carrying me and it's a perfect middle ground. Now I'm forced to use brand spanking new versions that look and behave way worse. If Hammer and Chisel still operated the way they did back in 2016, there would be no problem, and we could use the first version of the app and it would still work. Sure, it may only be compatible with the most bare discord components, but at least the support would've been there.

    Step up your game and listen to the community like you did way back when. I think that would help the devs a lot rather than just give them a .00002% (corporate picked) representation of the community and give them full control of how your app looks and works. Come on man.

    Is this for real!? Yes that was exactly my strategy too! Currently the 126.21 version is still working for me, I hope this is not real! (EU West) edit: okay apparently it's not real, or it's been restored
