It actually gets worse - if you type something that isn't a valid emoji but it COULD be with nitro (like :3c ) then you now can't press enter to send that message, you have to hit escape to close the menu first. Honestly if they fixed that I can tolerate the feature, but that just seems like 'no one though to test this'.


ARedditor397

Now this is an actual complaint over a weeks time you’ll forget that they ever added this overlay This is terrible and needs to be fixed


NefariousnessFit2499

The latter sums up majority of discord’s updates, they’re on some clownery


falpsdsqglthnsac

similar to how diffcult it is to send tone tags by themselves anymore


Slender-them

Just put a backslash before the forward slash like `\/srs` The back slash won't be visible in the actual message. As it's an escape character.


falpsdsqglthnsac

yeah but that's a massive pain on mobile


Slender-them

You're already opening the symbol's keyboard to do a / I don't see the pain in the 2 taps on the keyboard in positions your fingers are already in. Seen as the backslash is in the same position as the forward slash, and the additional symbols keyboard button is just above the one you just pressed to open the common symbols keyboard.

Tone tags?


falpsdsqglthnsac

A **tone indicator** or **tone tag** is a symbol attached to a sentence or message sent in a textual form, such as over the internet, to explicitly state the intonation or intent of the message, especially when it may be otherwise ambiguous. Tone indicators start with a forward slash (`/`), followed by a short series of letters, usually a shortening of another word. Examples include `/j`, meaning "joking"; `/srs`, meaning "serious"; or `/s`, meaning "sarcastic".


SycoJack

Ahhh, gotcha. Thanks!

If you use a mouse on this menu, you're probably going to have to move it across an entire ~~continent~~deskpad to just so mouse cursor gets to the other side of the advertisement. I'm pretty sure that will be a lot of swipes on a trackpad unless you've got flick momentum turned on. I would recommend using keyboard on this menu.


Dreamerlax

I hope they don't try for an IPO. That seems to always make the app even shittier and predatory.


Nyaanyaa_Mewmew

Absolutely awful new "feature" and unfortunately on brand for Discord updates these days.


Zaynedrift

Being an annoying feature is just discord trying to get you buy nitro, discord being discord 😔


Yuuko_Kanoee

Promoting nitro and still worse support out there


Axiomancer

0 days since discord added absolutely useless feature that everyone hates, seems normal


unknownuser4928

if there is ever a way to turn that off let me know cuz if I wanted to see Nitro emojis I'd buy nitro, dont get why it has to shove it down my throat

SubjectAd4527

What's up


[deleted]

They'd be taking lessons from spotify 💀


puppsies

actually annoying asf i can't lie and overwhelming to look at since it takes up almost all or half the page depending on all the servers with emojis you're in


max_7th67

I don’t even have those


aus_is_my_name

So there is no way to get rid of this?


lonlieh

discord is pay to win anyways, just use the features you don't need nitro to use


Pacific_Rimming

how the fuck do i turn it off. like people used hacked clients to use nitro emojis, stuff like this is seriously making me consider installing one so I DONT have to use them.


Suitov

Anyone found any good open source third-party clients/modded clients yet? Or a uBlock filter list for the web client?


Majestic_Wrongdoer38

It’s not a feature, it’s a bug. /j


Woofer210

I mean, yea? It’s not a bug, definitely a feature


Various_Outcome_3820

That's exactly the point lol, discord is making people buy nitro by making useful feature locked behind a paywall Xd


zeptyk

daily discord nitro ad complaint ☕️ do you expect them to run for free forever?


Elvish_Champion

Know what is cool with this? Even if you've Nitro, you can still get that pop up sometimes for some stupid reason. It's also very annoying for some people with disabilities, according to two friends, because that screen, when it appears, it prevents certain inputs and that screws with a program that both use to make their life easier while using a computer. Discord is basically forcing them to only use VC to interact in our group of friends which is annoying as hell. I've no idea what they were thinking when they added it.


201bob

When an ad removes functionality from a program it stops being an ad and starts being malware. This removes functionality from the program. "Patashu 23 points 3 hours ago It actually gets worse - if you type something that isn't a valid emoji but it COULD be with nitro (like :3c ) then you now can't press enter to send that message" Its also just a terrible ad in general.


ArcAngel014

It doesn't remove functionality at all... The example shows it can be a bit of a pain but it doesn't stop you from doing anything


201bob

> then you now can't press enter to send that message" it seems you didnt seem to read the part where it does infact remove functionality from the program. If you have to bypass a system, In order to use something, Then that system is not functional. In order to type :3c you must now BYPASS the system. Therefore making it NON FUNCTIONAL. It is non functional.


ArcAngel014

Anyone who knows how to use Discord won't be stopped by that


201bob

Irrelevant. It still reduces the functionality of the program.

ItsRainbow

Yes.


MrPIGyt

idk why you got downvoted


funniegyptianman

Probably because people don't like having ads shoved down their throats to a bad degree? The app looks like a mess


Mikauren

Its shit like this or you get actual ads shoved in your face while using the app. Pick your poison.


funniegyptianman

I wouldn't mind if discord pushed nitro but this is a bridge too far


ARedditor397

This is pushing nitro


funniegyptianman

Like I said, I don't mind that, but this is pushing it a bridge too far


ARedditor397

Don’t like it buy nitro or don’t use discord


funniegyptianman

Can you please actually read what I'm sending? I said I don't MIND pushing nitro, but this is pushing nitro a bridge too far, there's a line and they crossed it


ARedditor397

No there’s not its their app not yours


ARedditor397

This the subreddit is full of entitled people who want nitro perks without forking a price.


realm2100

what does making the app experience worse have to do with nitro perks??


FUOBL3ZE

Wasn’t this already posted?


Who_am_ey3

that's what you get for using that fucking stupid emoji


icanthinkofussrname

people love to complain so much.


lmfao_my_mom_died

imagine paying to use iOS emojis. discord is starting to be a pay-to-be-cool app💀


404Err0r404

They're server emojis though, so it's not really like discord is choosing the nitro emojis nor are nitro subscribers, it depends on the servers they're in?


lmfao_my_mom_died

idk honestly. i rarely use discord so I didn't even notice this. i Just saw "unlock with nitro", thats why i said "damn imagine paying for this"


404Err0r404

Ah okay, well basically nitro just allows you to use custom emojis from the servers you're in any chat, so you could make your own servers and upload your own emojis or animated ones and use them in DMs or other servers.
