Provided the community has clear rules on where to post gifs/memes redirecting the user is fine. Of course it should be a gentle reminder and not feel as if the user is getting berated.
If they still get pissy after that, it’s more on the user. A reminder to follow the rules is not a personal attack.
So just scroll up? It’s not like when a message is off the screen, it’s gone forever. Or do you never catch up on messages that you missed while offline and just go in from there?
The good thing is that you can choose to ignore the meme, reply to the interesting thought and continue the conversation. Then if you keep the conversation going, it could be made a thread if people are interested in it.
Also a honeypot for memes is helpful so people are less inclined to drop them in general channels
I’m gonna get flak for this but no, Discord does not sell any user data, no matter how many times people keep repeating it. Quoting a legendary redditor here:
Discord’s privacy policy repeatedly states that they do not sell your personal information:
This is a legal document that they will get in trouble for if they were lying. They’ve already been fined hundreds of thousands of euros for GDPR violations but that curiously did not include a fine for “took people’s personal information and then sold them without consent whilst explicitly saying they didn’t do that”
Discord further has no third party advertisements which they can use to “sell” your data by allowing those advertisements to target you.
