How to Temporarily Bypass Discord ToS Update - eviltoast

Steps

1: Use browser Addon uBlock Origin or other extension for picking and disabling HTML such as Tampermonkey etc.

  1. Open Discord in Browser

  2. Pick and make filter against elements:

discord.com##.scrollerBase__65223.thin__62e51.content_b28aab
discord.com##.rootWithShadow_d20cd6.fullscreenOnMobile__05784.small_f8e677.root_a28985
discord.com##.withLayer__29ace.backdrop__1a911

NOTE: This will also bug the preview for files when you click them, but it’s still usable.


For those of you who wish to backup Discord posts and conversations, you have a few choices.

  1. If you are very tech-savvy you can transfer everything over to a Matrix Self-Host, then take it offline so that it functions as a storage medium.

  2. You can use several open source tools such as Tyrrrz’s discord chat exporter

Be warned: leaking your Discord User Authentication Token could be potentially harmful.

    Circling back. It looks like they did something this week and the filter no longer works. Any chance you know of a new filter?

      By now you should have already sent in the email opting out of forced arbitration and/or backed up your history anyways. This issue started over 2 months ago.
