    Reminder for everybody to never install Discord. It functions as a desktop web app, and you can even use it like so on your phone. You shouldn’t even give Discord your phone number, tbh, and you should never pay them money.

      I keep trying to remove my phone number from my Discord account, but each time I do “suspicious activity” is found on my account and needs my phone number to verify.

        I wonder if you can submit a support ticket? Although, if they’ve already got record of your number it doesn’t really do much good to remove it. Not giving it to them is just something that makes your habbits harder to track and make it harder for them and associated companies to build profiles on for things like advertisement and in some cases mass surveillance and espionage, although I make no statements on the extent of Discord’s particular activities.
