Video streaming bitrates is the one that most affects my day to day. You could stream 1080p for free back in the day. I also believe the ability to post server emotes in other servers is also something that was locked behind the introduction of Nitro, but I can’t confirm since at that time I was only in a single channel.

With this said, Discord needs to make money somehow, but crippling your own platform isn’t the way.

“Blame the author, not the language”

Says the person who screams they have never worked professionally with a team before.

There is no excuse to not use statically typed, safe languages nowadays. There are languages that let you build faster like Python and Typescript, but faster does not mean safer. Even if your code is flawless it still isn’t safe because all it takes is a single flawed line of code. The more bug vectors you remove the better the language is.
