If you look at the top of the page, the thread was created September 22nd, two weeks ago.

I'm a little bit confused what the video meant by "stealing a paid service". Do you not have to pay for Xbox Live if you're using a stealth server?

Showcasing projects is fine, but hosting downloads to your projects on Discord is not. Remember, Discord has temporary URLs that expire in 24-hours, and forcing people to sign up to a platform that has "spyware" written all over it may not be the best choice. Preferably, put it on GitHub or Archive.org.

I've never had a spyware problem on Discord.

Nah. Gold status is checked console side iirc, stealth servers can spoof it.

It is incredibly disrespectful to people who don't like Discord (anyone who cares about being safe in the internet) to lock them into using it. I'll save the "discord is evil" talk for another time so i don't shit up the thread. What matters is, just because you do not have a problem with it personally does not mean it is a great method for software distribution, infact there are quite a lot of objective downsides to using an IM service to host anything. Not being able to crawl it for archival and indexing being the most obvious.

This was discussed earlier. It doesn't work for most Gold tier features, IME. It might let you join a lobby without a subscription but stuff will break. I'm not sure if leaderboards and such count, I thought they were free, but security on the older Xbox Live implementations isn't great so maybe it's true.

I don't consider it theft, you get a sub-par experience without real Gold on your account and I can't imagine Microsoft is betting on revenue from a 21 year old console.

If you need something more comprehensive then GIYF.

Sorry I did not see that

A reminder that the Xbox 360 was launched in 2005.

This really took ages didn't it?
