now you can make threads and they auto tag whoever you are replying too. thank you discord. it’s annoying as gently caress. I hope you get lots of vc money from this.

shamelessly plugging the inclusive yospos discord while we’re talking about it. people are pretty good and we have minimal drama.

it might be a broken playhouse with rusty nails everywhere but it’s one where they let me in when I knock and say the password is “my balls”

hopefully somewhere in the world that’s still respected

helped run a panel last night and we used discord and converted to a “community” so could use the stage panel audio room thing


and the speakers can’t share screens. so I got everyone in the room to switch to ordinary audio room which allows screen sharing


fuckin hell discord. you have a good feature but you hosed it up

it almost makes sense with reddit because the default set of subreddits definitely has a flavour and a redditor is a thing

but discord doesn’t have that… or does it?

imo they want to be the destination for interests rather than the place you end up when you coalesce somewhere else like reddit

discord keeps telling my to put in my .edu address if i want to join my university's group or something

i wish it would stop since i graduated almost 20 years ago and definitely do not want to talk to college children

if you make anywhere near computer toucher money $100/yr is peanuts. i started paying for nitro early as an intentional "i like your product, please consider user subscriptions a viable base of revenue rather going all in on a 'service is free because user data is our product and its buyers (adtech and friend) are our customers'" thing. "pay for poo poo you use" is a good consumer mindset, because you hold more sway over the product if you do

it's not so much an "emotes across servers are definitely worth $X" thing as it is knowing exactly how the completely free model played out with facebook and wanting something other than that.
