> Discord is a successful company. I'm bearish on Discord (as I was last year). Discord didn't win, it's burning money and nitro is (currently) not saving them -- just how their previous attempt at monetization (the store) didn't either. Alternative narratives won't make this fact true. People seem to conveniently forget about XFire, and the many other "gaming chat apps" that preceded it. Why Discord appears to have won is because it's free. We'll see what happens when the money dries up.
