This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Never understood why anyone would want to pay 100$ a year for discord, the paid version doesnt give you that much imo
To support the developers and pay for a product you use all the time? Same reason you pay for any software/game.
Personally, Discord has facilitated a long distance relationship with my now wife, and nearly ten years of weekly TTRPG games. I don't mind the cost because they cannot provide that service for free forever, and I think it's worth it for what I get out of it. The other benefits they add for paying are almost just bonuses to me after that.
you could also pay to host some shit like mumble.
Mumble does not look like a replacement for all the things I use Discord for.
Which is a good monetation system. Premium users barely get anything but still enough to pay, while free users can do pretty much everything too.
I pay $30 a year for Nitro Basic. It's only $2.50 a month and worth it to me with how much I use it.
I spam 500mb uploads... it kinda makes sense to me
personally the $3 a month nitro is worth it for me, considering how much I use it. I know Lemmy hates anything capitalist but a coffee a month isnt that much
You don't wanna pay $100 for a bunch of useless stickers and random features that don't need to be in a chat program? Whaaaaaat? That's weird. ^/s^
