Hopefully users push back hard enough on this bullshit that server owners decide it's not worth the backlash to use these features... If not, I guess I'll thin out my server list.
I doubt it. Users may already be familiar with these features and would see it a way to make processes more seamless. Server subscriptions would mean you don't have to go through Patreon.
With the way things are headed, #Discord might actually become a viable competitor to platforms like #Twitch.
A viable Twitch alternative would be great, honestly, but Discord has a ways to go before they get there.
That's actually an interesting point; if this was being used to provide alternate access to already subscription-based content, it's somewhat more palatable. I was thinking in terms of previously freely available content being locked behind a paywall.
