    They are planning to IPO later this year. In preparation they’ve already added shit features or removed some good ones.

    Discord will soon be the next piece of shit.

      As long as discord can voice calls and channels that are quick and easy to join, it literally does all most people need.

        That is only a very small use case for the majority of discord users, it has overtaken dedicated support forums for the vast majority of gaming, politics, day trading, you name it.

        Then they slowly start adding ads (quests), paywalling more and more features and generally looking to juice their numbers for the IPO, after it goes public it will enshitify further as the csuite looks to get their payday and have their places filled with “shareholder value” types. It’s happened over and over just you wait.
