Yeah, it seems they're beginning to head that way, with the nitro first and then the super emotes or whatever they're called. I suppose I can see, if it's server cost, but the unnecessary bells and whistles are beginning to bug me and it's only going to continue.

    Unfortunately, it's a natural result of Discord moving from being a useful little service to a "platform" with investors and needing to constantly be updated with useless nonsense to keep the "value" of the product alive.

    Realistically, once everything was up and running, and they had moved their DB over to their current platform, someone should have taken the keys away from them and just said "Discord is done, it's complete". We likely wouldn't be having this much of a problem with useful information being hidden away behind Discord server invite URLs.
