A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I think Discord is still too new and still in the phase where they're baiting users on their platform with superious UX and "verything is easy". They haven't yet started shitting on their users. But who knows ^^
They are already shitting on their users, recently they disabled permanent invite links for non-comminuty servers, if you want to get permanent invite links, you need to make your server a community, which I think it will make it public (not sure). In the other hand, Discord is still a giant cesspool of malware.
Also just the blatant push for introducing more and more nitro-only feature bloat into the average users UI. I haven't ever seen the gift button being used, but it's still right there on the text bar, where it serves no purpose.
I think I've only seen it used to give a suprise cheap gift in an active chat to send people crazy
that actually sounds a little fun. I'll admit that I've mostly used discord for the smaller communities
