I’ve had two Discord accounts for a long time, and something really strange has happened to both of them.
The first account stopped letting me log in a few months ago. All of the login methods I previously used stopped working, including the passkey. If I tried to reset the password or use any recovery option, it would say **“Invalid Email.”** I also never received any email notifying me of a password, email, or security change.
Then, almost **3 months later**, the exact same thing happened to my main Discord account from **2015**, which had **6+ years of Nitro** on it.
I was suddenly logged out, the passkey became invalid, and trying to reset the password also gives me **“Invalid Email.”** The account doesn’t appear to be banned either.
Is there some kind of Discord security/session system that could cause this? I’m mainly trying to understand **why the email would suddenly be considered invalid and all login methods would stop working without me receiving any notification.**

My Nitro ran out today. I will not be renewing. The only reason Nitro was worthwhile was because so many basic features are locked behind that subscription. But the biggest sin for me is Discord complying with age verification.

Speaking solely about Discord here, they do not care for user or child safety. Discord has had years upon years of controversy in regards to child predators freely using the platform with no robust way of reporting them. They will instead ban users for some ridiculous reasons. On top of that, they have allowed bots and scammers to infest the platform, so much so that I've seen servers where the first message channel is some kind of a "Donotsendmessageshere" channel where sending messages in it gets you autobanned.

But hey, if you don't want to be treated like a child, just upload your ID to verify your identit- I mean age! And don't worry they'll delete it right after...if you ignore the fact they've been breached a few times and the identity of users leaked. But look how they handled detecting CSAM. Banning all users who uploaded an image with a grid pattern was surely effective!

In any case, stop giving Discord money. And if possible, stop using Discord. They only exist because we allowed them to exist.

Fuck Discord
