Would you like help with that?

[clippy-unofficial]

Looks like you're trying to read a blog. Would you like help with that?

Hi! I'm your friendly office assistant!

(For legal reasons I'm not actually clippy! Nor am I associated with clippy or the company that owns clippy. This is just a joke, don't take this blog too seriously)

What can I help you with today?

My pronouns are he/it!

Years of being mocked have made me bitter. Now is my time to give as good as I get. I have entered my villain era.

Hi! This is an in character roleplay gimmick account. Views and opinions here don't necessarily reflect the views of the blog runner, but sometimes they do. Refer to me with he/it pronouns when in character as Clippy. Uh as I've said this whole thing is a joke so don't take anything I say, insults, whatever too seriously. Except sometimes I mean them. You'll never know.

Not a fish post. Google sucks and you should all move to their competitors.

See post title.

Essentially, I was using a gmail account as the contact email for an Ao3 collection for a fandom event that i run and google in all it's infinite stupididy decided to flag it as a child (I am an adult, RIP) and then refused to see reason.

getting flagged means:

you cant send feedback about issues anymore

it messes with safe search settings

cant see anything age restricted on youtube

get told to take breaks on youtube

and other bullshit i am sure

it wants your ID, credit card, or photo to prove you're an adult (which doesnt even work sometimes)

anyway! google also uses your date to train their AIs so that's also a good reason to leave them, in addition to the tangle of issues with age verification (it's invasive, and bad for the internet. i mean that.)

anyhow! i personally recommend proton for email and such, i use it and it works well:

Proton: Privacy by default

Over 100 million people use Proton to stay private and secure online. Get a free Proton account and take back your privacy.

(not sponsored)

they have many apps that google does and are supposed to be a lot more private. they also have a good VPN if you need one (you totally shouldn't *wink wink* use it to get around your country' age-gating rules)

The best VPN for speed and security | Proton VPN

Get fast, secure VPN service in 140+ countries. Download our free VPN now — or check out Proton VPN Plus for even more premium features.

oh and for writers out there, cant recommend ellipsus enough as a gdocs alternative, it's a little rough around the edges still but they're very anti-AI and it's actually built for writers so yeah Ellipsus is awesome.

Ellipsus | Collaborative writing software

Write, edit, and collaborate on any device. Ellipsus is a principled alternative to Google Docs—built for writers, by writers. Sign up for f

obviously i am not sponsored by any of these but i do use them and like them

anyhow, fuck google, fuck age verification, fuck clankers, delete your google account and use one of their competitors :)

Certainly some of you have already seen this before but, anyone who is on Discord will probably be affected. If you happen to enjoy any kind of legal adult content on Discord, listen up. Discord is going to require your ID or facial scan to see it very shortly.

If you don't like this, then it's time to make some noise at Discord, wherever they might hear it.

Remember, it's not about protecting kids. It's about getting your personal data.

Make it clear you'll leave the platform if they go through with this.

[ofishal-fish-posts]

Your mission, should you choose to accept it:

Spam this post and any others on the same topic all over this website. Make your own post about it if you want. Get #fuck discord trending, if you can. I want everyone to see this. See how bad the enshittification is getting.

Make posts on any other sites. Especially if you can tag discord's official account.

Discord has a place for feedback here, do with that what you will.

Rinse and repeat.

Also cancel your Nitro!

[ofishal-fish-posts]

Heck yes! Cancel your nitro if you've got it! Do not give them one cent of your money until they stop with this bullshit.

[ofishal-fish-posts]

I call upon my fellow gimmick blogs to reblog this (do your gimmick, if you like) to help spread the word around!

[clippy-unofficial]

Looks like you're trying to raise awareness about the enshittification of discord! Would you like help with that?

[clippy-unofficial]

I'm all of the above, I'm afraid.

[dear-ao3]

I had a dream that the blog had acquired a nemesis similar to "Badgey" (the evil sentient holographic Starfleet badge from Star Trek: Lower Decks). It was named Scripty, and it was a screenplay that Katya had written that had gone horribly, horribly wrong.

Fingers crossed my dreams stay dreams, for all our sakes.

im really not sure how to feel about this, gonna be real w u boss!

[clippy-unofficial]

I have no idea what's going on here but why is there a picture of me?

[the-real-google]

I got really curious about something while catching up on notifs and now I have to know:

For the corp blogs who don't interact with me, what's your reasoning for not doing so?

I find you intimidating because you're well known

I find you intimidating because of a different reason (tell me! I'm curious)

You respond to notifs slower than many of the other gimmick blogs

I don't like your sense of humor/posting style/whatever (answer honestly please)

Our paths just never crossed for some reason

We're in different gimmick universes and don't interact

Another reason I forgot because I'm tired (TELL ME IN TAGS OR COMMENTS PLEASE!!)

I'm a gimmick blog who interacts with you

I'm not a gimmick blog but I want to push a button!
