A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

The whole current fiasco stems from services being free and then trying to cash in later hoping that users won't switch, there's no guarantee that Discord won't pull similar stuff to Reddit. In fact they already are hostile to third party clients.
Discord has to pull this sometime becuase venture capital isn't going to sustain it for eternity and "Nitro" makes next to nothing compared to cost. I just hope Matrix has the tech to save me when it hits.
