Cloudflare Blocking My Access and Poor Customer Support Service
Discogs has changed for the worse. I'll explain why.
Back in the past, Discogs never used Cloudflare. Now it has jumped on this stupid Cloudflare bandwagon that prevents harmless users from accessing the Discogs site. I'm experiencing Cloudlfare's endless captcha loop of hell that prevents me from accessing the site due to Discogs's endlessly stupid business decisions. Cloudflare is a privacy nightmare, too.
PayPal has unresolved technical issues, poor customer support service, and underpaid workers from India. Oh, they're underpaid. I can't imagine why poor customer support service is happening. 🙄 But Discogs insists on using PayPal despite its awful customer support service, unethical worker treatment, and unresolved technical issues. This is why I warn people to not use Discogs since it insists on using PayPal's shady platform for money transactions in case something goes horribly wrong. On top of it all, PayPal is another privacy nightmare. PayPal is reflecting the collapsing western civilization. And it's pretty uncivilized that these western companies keep using PayPal since it has worsening issues that never get resolved.
When people are exposing dishonest sellers and buyers, they get punished on Discogs. This doesn't promote honest selling and buying at all. I warn people to avoid buying and selling on Discogs since it punishes honesty rather than scammers.
Another complaint is that Discogs staff ignores people's complaints on its forums when they dislike the site's new designs. These new designs are being forced on people. Not mutually agreed on. It's not a user-friendly site anymore.
