Discord is one of the few websites on the Internet that doesn't embed any cross-origin resources. Their business model is to sell you stickers. If that isn't honest graft I don't know what is. Last thing Discord needs is for the Cambridge Analyticas of the world to start building apps for it. I'm surprised they even have a developer API.
- charcircuit 5y ago>Discord is one of the few websites on the Internet that doesn't embed any cross-origin resources What do you mean? You can literally link to an image and Discord will replace that link with an inline image. And with opengraph Discord will embed youtube videos and twitter image and videos right into the chat.

- EdwardDiego 5y agoI admire that business model (Grinding Gear Games followed a similar approach with their ARPG Path of Exile initially, you could only buy cosmetics, and seemed to do okay with that, as opposed to games like War Thunder where money could buy you special planes/tanks/ships, although I think GGG's approach may have changed slightly after Tencent bought them). I just hope it's viable when you're taking VC money.
