really? they plan on making more than $12 billion "eventually"? after "going public"? a company that basically just "sells" a "free service"? do they expect millions of people to pay $100 a year to have prettier emojis?
It's worth noting that Discord already has a better low latency small group streaming implementation than Zoom. And that's pretty much the main reason why Zoom is valued at its current level.
Except that, of course, discord just works without even requiring installing any software on your machine. Almost all features will literally work in your modern browser.
And main reason why it's so hugely popular is because I can use it like any social media app straight from my phone and its.... wireless connection.
