Discord to start showing ads in-app this week - Dexerto
In early March 2024, Discord revealed that “sponsored quests”, or ads would be added to the platform to help “support game developers” through the popular chat app.
Discord didn’t initially share a release date, or even how they’re going to implement ads into Discord’s overall design, other than mentioning that the sponsored quests would “tastefully” be integrated.
A report from The Wall Street Journal claims that Discord’s sponsored quests will be landing on the platform this week, and will be displayed at the bottom left of the app.
I appreciate you posting this article. But from what I see it is just a bot. They‘re far easier to make in matrix since people already host their stuff on a server and everything about matrix is open. The problem could be that developers are rarely openly queer (I know some but they’re minuscule in numbers). The toxic masculinity train hasnt left the station yet imo.
Anyway, its not hard to build a bot and we have many bots that change messages from a user and putting in trigger messages is not hard. Please consider asking a queer dev to push for it (so an ally is actually at the helm) and then make it known. Be the change you want to see.
