    undefined> honestly as long as the stuff that discord is monetizing stays additive instead of changing services we already use to be paid-for,

    Narrator: “The microtransactions did not, in fact, remain only additive.”

      Sure, and when that day comes I’m there to criticize discord for it. But, given they need to make money (they have to, they don’t have the option to just operate at a loss for the rest of time), it’s worth acknowledging their attempts to make money without infringing on the service the users actually signed up for.
