Discord is opening the monetization floodgates: get ready for microtransaction stores and paid 'exclusive memes'
Discord is opening the monetization floodgates: get ready for microtransaction stores and paid 'exclusive memes'
The internet's favorite chat app is turning servers into storefronts.
You're viewing a single thread.
Well, this seems like powerful motivation for me to eventually find a free open source positive alternative to Discord, while ignoring Discord in the meantime. I would love to bypass their enshittification phase entirely.
There's Matrix/Element and now Revolt
Revolt is one, and the app is basically a clone of Discord.
It's very new, but that's one. Spacebar was one but seems to be stuck in limbo. Then yeah there's Revolt I guess.
@Nero if it's from the same dev as Nertivia, I wouldn't trust them
@PositiveNoise @dirtmayor Have you tried revolt.chat ?
I'll check out revolt.chat. Thanks for the suggestion!
Maybe this is a sign people need to stop expecting everything on the Internet to be free?
If you’re selling my data, it’s not free
