Time to cancel your subscription and save money on top of your sanity
- What's so good about nitro that people actually pay for it? Genuinely asking.
  
  pointing alien, mostly
  
  If you are into emoticons, you can use custom emoticons of one server on another. If you share files, such as clips, until recently discord allowed only 8mb on free tier. Now it is 25mb, but can get up to 500mb with nitro. Video streaming is limited to 1080p at 30fps, nitro unlocks up to 4k with 60fps.
  
  Basically allows more bandwidth and storage on their servers, which is understandable I think.
  
  You get all your emotes cross server and you can upload bigger files + stream in better quality, but i don't think any of this is really worth it.
  
  I only have it for bigger upload file size. I send big files surprisingly frequently
  
  I have the basic $3 one, I just call it my shitposting tax. Longer messages, using emotes in any server and larger files. I use it a lot since my friends haven't warmed up to Matrix yet, might as well support them while its not total trash
  
  Higher file size uploads and streams.
  
  I mostly just pay for it because I've used it for ages and definitely get more value out of it than the subscription cost. I don't think I use a single nitro feature.
I disabled sticker suggestions immediately when they introduced that garbage feature
It want you, not clear?
- you
shouldn't pay for discord nitro.
I hate how the Linux client needs to manually updated about once a week, then it downloads more updates. I hate how it says it's my lucky day.
- There's a config file setting where you can make discord allow itself to be run no matter how out of date it is but it's hard to remember, hard to find every time you forget it and I don't remember what it is.
  
  you
i love being jumpscared by nitro.

Fucking shit ass platform.
YOU🫵👽
- you
I'm pretty sure he wants you to crank that Soulja Boy.

Paying for a free app. You get what you deserve.
- you
- This mindset is how many free apps we care about end up as advertising and data-selling businesses.
  
  Breaking news! The privacy respecting, open source social media app known as Discord suddenly begins collecting and selling personal information to unless you opt to pay them to do it instead.
- Nothing is really free lol
  
  A discord account is free, you don't need to pay for it. If you paid for yours, you were scammed.
