Wow, I hadn't even noticed that PeakD was having problems. This is just one example why I use Ecency for my posting... even after publishing (or NOT publishing!) my posts stay in drafts. Of course, Ecency also experiences a lot of server problems, so my drafts don't always save when I hit save.
I've never been to the Discord for either, but I definitely agree that this level of KYC for a Discord server is pretty ridiculous!
