Discord offers subscriptions and micro transactions in a chat app. This is the future of everything thanks to people going "oh it's not so bad".
"oh, at least there are no ads"
except they're shoving microtransaction ads literally everywhere.
Various practices that make you feel like you're missing out by not buying nitro.
Profile decoration shop ads almost in every single place.
There's even a dedicated nitro gift button on the message bar.
Imagine getting peer pressured because of emojis. Seriously if you dont want to shitpost with emojis, you're not missing anything.
