Major Discord Update: Paid Channels, Discussions and New Design

The developers of the rather popular Discord application talked about the innovations that will be implemented on the platform in the foreseeable future. Firstly, inspired by the popularity of the new social network Clubhouse, the authors of the project decided to implement group chats on their platform, in which only the speaker can speak – these chats can be monetized by providing access to the conference only after purchasing a virtual ticket. That is, now famous personalities, streamers and opinion leaders will have a convenient way to broadcast to a closed audience, monetizing their creativity.

Secondly, now Discord will also become a forum – under each message it will be possible to create a whole discussion, communicating on a certain topic with like-minded people. Previously, there was only a chat form in the application, which caused many users to get confused and lost the essence of the dialogue. And, thirdly, the service will now acquire an official music bot (unofficial ones have existed for a very long time), and a mini-game will also appear in the application. And Discord now has a new logo, which is almost no different from the old one, and an updated font – the authors of the service devoted an entire blog post to these changes.
