They supposedly can be disabled in settings- but we all know that won’t last. They’re going full Microsoft Skype mode and it’s only a matter of time.

Yeah, I always assumed the free version was the loss leader and they made it back with people buying the paid version.
Yeah apparently not enough return on that for Amazon. I’m hoping my pihole will deal with the majority of the ads. Prime video ads are served from the same domain as the main content so I can’t block them with this method.
They tried to do that, but it’s difficult to make a decent subscription service for what’s essentially a chat app.
Isn’t that what Nitro is?
It is, but it’s not exactly a good subscription service for the average Discord user. In the past, they kept adding and removing features, trying to find stuff that stuck. While I think they’ve got a decent feature set right now, it’s still not great, and I don’t think the average Discord user would be very impressed by it.
“Pay $10/ month for increased upload size, custom emojis shared everywhere (and not tied to being used in only one server), and animated profile pics/ banners/ backgrounds!” There are other features, but I don’t think most people would use them.
The biggest feature, custom emojis being able to be used in any server, is also part of their $5/ month tier, so most subscribers don’t even have a need for the more expensive tier.
