@unfa discord is one of the many "grow user base as fast as possible, deal with monetization later" kinda platforms.
these tend to rely on VC money in order to stay afloat, with the promise of being able to monetize the users eventually, that growing in size is the most important metric...
from what I have seen, investors are getting a bit fed up with these schemes, resulting is lack of funding for platforms that cannot sustain themselves (yet?)
so them turning to shit is kinda expected...
