    I don’t use Discord, so this screenshot is amazing. It somehow manages to combine the clutter of bad '90s UI design with the wastage, eye candy glut, and oversimplification of the last 10 years. A towering achievement in the worst of both worlds.

      Honestly the only saving grace is they don’t show ads. But that only works while the users keep a stream of money flowing their way. It’s a lot like the paid Reddit award scheme, except Reddit still shows loads of ads lol

      The sad thing is that they used to be better than this, but enshitification came for them too and they felt the need to cram features into the client that nobody uses to appease shareholders.

      Look, look, we’re creating value, look!

      I do use Discord, but have never seen it look like that. I didn’t know it supported posts/threads and stuff… does it really?
