Seems like discord is asking people to verify their accounts with phone numbers nowadays. I guess I won’t be using it anymore? :🤷

I assume it’s because it scales poorly. You can’t readily source 500 phone numbers, while you could spool up a $5 per month VPS and host 500 email addresses.
They don’t really want to match you so much as adding a stumbling block to someone making a bazillion accounts.
But I don’t think they require a phone number for account creation right?
Yep, they let you create your account with just an email address, and once you’ve joined a few servers and started using discord they’re like “oh btw give us your phone number too, you won’t have access to anything until you do”.
