There's really no reason to be mad at them in this particular instance. Their client is Chromium-based (Electron) so they will optimize their new features for that engine first. There's probably less than 5% users who Discord from browser, let alone Firefox, and I think I'm being generous with that number. Additionally, some things are harder to implement (or even impossible) in native web rather than Electron, that has all the NodeJS integrations.

Sadly, I was born with uncheck outable username disorder.

One of those is not like the rest and doesn't truly deserve to be on the list – "username checks out". All the others provide absolutely no value, while "username checks out", at least, lets you notice a potential humorous situation which you might not have noticed otherwise.

That's Trisha, isn't it?

Counter point:

Product (noun) - something that is made to be sold.

The software in question is not for sale, therefore is not a "product", and this post is not an ad.

I've been playing this on Vita and Switch for some while now. There's probably a port of this for anything, at this point. I think there even was a JS version that runs in web browser.

I remember using QuickPic all the way back on Android Gingerbread. They sure had enough time to solve "All Problem".

I was probably thinking of Plague Inc.

What's the problem with dropping a lightsaber to the Earth's core? I mean, other than losing it.

Ah, so it's, like, a brutalist, function over form preference?
I can focus on content much better when the UI is breathing. And I prefer clients that have images already expanded, to save me the clicks.

Idk why people like the old reddit UI and at this point I'm too afraid to ask.

Actually, I'll ask it anyway. Can somebody please give me a comprehensive explanation?
Is it just nostalgia? I would understand, I play retro games with CRT filter on.

I would say yes, it's out, but fortunately, it still hasn't hit critical mass. We can still make it if we invest more into medicine and move to Madagascar.
