Meh, I couldn't care less. Never used anything but the basic features, and if anyone wants to throw money at them, that's their choice.

As long as I'm not rate limited when using the regular chat in the free tier, I'm good.

I only use it because my friends like to for when we game or watch stuff together. But, never bothered to actually install the app or software.

Unless it gets in the way of that don't see people moving.

The issue is that once they start heading down that path, they will probably start enshittifying the experience for non-paying users.

Gross. Time for a mass exodus to Matrix.

Hmm. This makes too much sense to me for me to be mad. Discord can easily compete with patreon the way I see it. Obviously, they could fuck it up and ruin the whole platform but if their team has more than a few brain cells it should work out fine right?

Can't wait for the 2nd hand free exclusive meme trading scene!

Oh yeah sure, this would be cool and all if they didn't screw 99% of their users out of their usernames first.

Well, this seems like powerful motivation for me to eventually find a free open source positive alternative to Discord, while ignoring Discord in the meantime. I would love to bypass their enshittification phase entirely.
