If a $10 Nitro membership or Premium Membership is out of your price range, Discord is making it more reasonable to pay for extras. After testing, the business is releasing a $3 monthly Nitro Basic package on October 20th that allows for custom emoji everywhere and gives 50MB file uploads. This could be advantageous if you just want to post brief films or display emoticons from a streamer’s server. However, you will lose out on standard Nitro’s 100MB uploads, HD video streaming, personalized profiles, server boosts, and most Activities (more on them in a bit).
The above-mentioned activities are also beginning in earnest. Without leaving the app, chatters may now play games, view films, and share experiences in various ways. However, regular Nitro users may invite non-subscribers to join an enlarged portfolio that includes games like Chess and Sketch Heads. Only Putt Party and Watch Together watching are accessible for free. As developers create for Discord’s platform, more Activities ought to be accessible.
At the same time, apps are getting more helpful. The Premium App Subscriptions that Discord is currently testing allow you to pay to access features without going elsewhere first. Additionally, there is now an App Directory that makes it easier for server operators to locate helpful add-ons.
Nitro Basic and the subsequent upgrades have a defined strategy. Discord wants to grow its subscription base while also fostering an ecosystem of apps that will benefit its business. Given that, you may not care whether doing this enables you to pass on a full-featured Nitro account or take part in a watching party.
