    It really emphasises that the desktop client is a glorified webapp that the entire window from top to bottom is nothing but a Cloudflare error page:

    this was posted here and flagged https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37701476

    I don't know why it's flagged tho, because it's true. I can confirm my desktop client is blocked (same screen as in the article), but funnily enough I can go to discord.com and login through the webinterface. Maybe they disabled the cloudflare CDN as an emergency measure in their webapp?

    I can get in via browser but not via the desktop client.
