Yeah, I know. But they seem hell bent on adding more and more distractions in every update. I mean, it felt more manageable when it was still just a gamer chat.

I've been using it since 2016, and none of the new features that I don't use have negatively impacted me.

Also using it since their first release, and all of the new features have impeded my usage. Server nicknames are fantastic but I couldn't tell you how to access that feature. I have to relearn where that option is every single time.

Nitro, Shop, and Quests. What are these even?

Even their changelog page is wtf (https://discord.com/tags/changelog)

Right click on the server icon or header, then per-server profile. Completely reasonable to me, and I don't think it has ever not been there since they introduced it.

Shop is where they sell customization stuff.

Quests let you earn currency you can use to buy customization stuff or nitro instead of real money.

I don't think there's a significantly better way to do whatever they are doing, and I don't see anything particularly objectionable about any of it.

Nitro is a subscription that gives you more customization for your profile (banners, themes, etc).

Shop is where you can buy additional customizations.

Quests get you exclusive unlocks for various games.
