Post #4116742

:blobfoxcomfycomputer: #privacy #discord I recently tried deleting some messages from Discord (out of 150k+ messages I sent in total, 20K were "eligible") using Discorch (discorch.org), but it's a real pain in the ass Discord doesn't allow deletion requests for messages if they are in a server or grouped DMs you are still a part of (and private DMs don't count because they are "always accessible" on their terms) For the messages you want to delete, you have to send a deletion request (GDPR if in EU), and that's where Discorch helps : it scans all the messages from the discord data package, puts the eligible one in a csv, and writes a pre-formatted request for you :blobfoxhappy: And what's also neat is that the code runs locally, and is entirely open source and available on Codeberg! Now to wait for the response (if they comply) :blobfoxsipglare: and if that works, I'll probably leave most servers I'm in to delete more messages
