I just cancelled my discord nitro(whatever the previous highest tier annual plans) in May because as a paying subscriber, I still get those intrusive ads that pops above your user corner and won’t go away. You are only given options to “try it” “maybe later” and no “not interested”, also no button to close it.
The ad client probably pay then significant amount of money that it’s worth the risk to piss off paying users.
I sent my support ticket and got lead around the hoops and need to send the request to sort of their internal voting board, which at that point I just gave up and cancel my subscription. If I got spammed more I will probably just go back to web interface and use ublock to start blocking elements. And if I can’t I probably just gonna say bye. (the campaign was over, there are no newer spams, but they lost my annual sub pretty much forever as I don’t think discord is gonna “be better”. )

By ads do you mean those games and shit on the bottom left?
Yep, those. Discord lose my money support pretty much forever.(cause I don’t think they will ever back off since they got big enough user base.)
