Discord

@everyone

YOU'RE A FAGGOT LOL!!!

Discord is the ultimate abortion, suckled from TeamSpeak and Skype's wombs, before being injected into IRC's buttcheeks. As it is intended for gaming, it's absolutely infested with neets, weebs, furries, the alt-left and the alt-right, niggers, aspies, SJWs, jews, and 13-year-old boys being hunted by pedophiles. It's like the internet version of a crack den mattress with bed bugs and cockroaches. DIRTY.

History

Discord was founded in May 13 2015, near the end of GamerGate. Praised by neets and tards for being centered around gaming and chatting, while simultaneously being stupid enough for low-IQ brandishing savages to use, Dicksore quickly outperformed archaic apps like Teamspeak and Skype, while being what is probably the fiftieth final nail in the coffin for IRC.

Richard Spencer's AMA on his alt-shite server

What really made it take off, though, was the 2016 election; a large amount of /pol/acks, already being lifeless husks, migrated to create support servers for their favorite Israel-loving kike shill, Donald Trump. The spike in lulzy hate crimes eventually made the lamestream (((media))) believe it was a platform for the alt-right and Trump supporters. Thanks to the moola Discord was making from this increase in users, they took little action.

However, in the summer of 2017 (dubbed the "Summer of Hate" by the Daily Butthole Stormer), a protest in Charlottesville was organized largely by alt-right Discords, including Daily Stormer itself. Unsurprisingly, the protest soured when nu-age middle-class Communists started inciting reactions from the Neo-Nazis. This ultimately escalated to some dumb shit driving a fatty whale over. As a result of the outcry, large corporations such as Google, GoDaddy, Discord, and several other irrelevant no-name services run by lefty twats began the slow-boiling process of terminating service to the salt-right, mostly to appease the moral majority. In other words, to make money by looking good.

This hasn't put a stop to the alt-right from continuing to make even more servers on Discord, though. In fact, Charlottesville has only inspired more hate boners, which has left some retards attempting to have yet another Charlottesville.

How Does Discord Work?

As explained before, Discord was born through stealing amazing features from other voice and face-based apps, before concentrating it into its own super dumbed down modernized IRC-esque app. Everything is kept simple to appeal to the guaranteed idiocy that the consumer has. In practice, you're supposed to somehow find your way into a server and join voice chat to play vidya like a frustrated little kid. But, in reality, a majority of Discord servers are centered around useless drivel such as cartoons, anime, and politics. So, if you ever do find a server that's actually about games, you better hold it close, gaylord.

These "amazing" features include:

Voice chat and calls
Face calls
Group chats
Empty Friend lists
Emojis
A ping system that, in good-faith, should be useful, but is abused by people with unwarranted self-importance to spam other users about shit nobody cares about
Cross-site account connection to apps such as Facebook and Xbox, so they can sell more of your personal data

Discord Nitro

And, for just ~~$4.99~~ $9.99 a month, or ~~$49.99~~ $99.99 a year, you can upgrade your account with ~~Facebook~~ Discord Nitro for access to "premium" benefits, such as:

50 custom emoji that, unless disabled by a server owner, you can mercilessly spam site-wide
Horribly compressed and animated avatars that no one will ever notice or care about
Greater file upload size, from 8MB to 50MB. Now you can share your shitty N64 roms!
The altruistic feeling of getting fucked by data miners, and still giving them money
Badge showing you stole your mom's credit card

It's important to note many of these features were heavily requested by Discord's users, or, in the case of custom emojis, used to be free-to-use features. Nice paywall!

Jew Scheming 2: Nitro Boogaloo

In late 2018, the staff of Discord realized that they weren't making enough money from auctioning off your data, so (((they))) added another benefit of Discord Nitro. If, for whatever reason, you're wasting your money on this IRC-for-zoomers client, you can now get access to a claimed "+$1,000 worth of games." Sounds a lot like an Xbox Game Pass. This is also when they significantly upped their price (from $4.99/monthly and $49.99/yearly, to $9.99/monthly and $99.99/yearly.) Why don't you just buy the games instead of supporting Discord?

As a result of adding this gaming bullshit, Discord revoked the right to sue them, alleging that class-action lawsuits could easily be abused. Now anyone who sues has to settle through arbitration (settling disputes/lawsuits/whatever outside of courts.)
