  lol, plutonium is their paid version of the software, so they’re just saying that nothing will print us to “upgrade”

    So is the paid version just because I like them and want to give them some money or they’re actual feature benefits of the paid version over the free version.

    I don’t mind paying in theory but they’re trying to replace a free product so the “pro” version would have to have significant benefits.

      You give them money for two things. Your paying the dev so he doesn’t have to work two jobs and can focus on just this one job. Which is ideal for a major project that the lead dev is full time on the project.

      And two if you use someone else’s infrastructure. If you arnt using your own hardware then you should be fucking paying money and not being a free loader.

      Self host if you don’t want to pay. You get all of the features, there’s no restrictions and you can do what ever you want with it.

      Honestly I’m getting pissed at all the stupid projects that charge you money for self hosting. It’s stupid as fuck.

      It’s nearly exactly the same benefits as discord nitro had in 2020. Add a banner, send emojis from other servers, increased bio and upload size, 2x the communities, animated avatars, higher video quality.

      Of course I would prefer for these things to be free, but I understand they want this to be profitable and as long as they aren’t going discord’s route of monetizing every area of the platform I do understand it.

        I find it also helps the cost is the same as old Nitro was which is pretty affordable IMO.
