Same here

Discord checks and works fine if you have a mainstream browser with all safety options turned off, allowing it to scan your system and user behaviour

Discord flags you as suspicious if you use VPN, andor other browsers with safety and anonymity options turned on

Asking to veryify your account per SMS is not so much an 2FA, it is more the kind of getting a phone number as personal ID, perhaps also to hassle and make you stand out as "paranoid nerd"
