Discord is basically “free”

First of all, please be assured that
Discord is a service that is based on the free version.

  • Chat
  • Voice chat
  • Shared screens
  • Join server

These basic features are all free.

If you just want to play games, make calls, or keep in touch with your friends
There’s no problem even if you don’t pay.

Nitro is not a “required” option, but an option to buy convenience with money.

“The inconvenience of the free version” that beginners tend to feel at first

Even if you don’t have any problems at first, as you use it, there will be points where you feel, “What?”.

① Can’t send videos or images (or image quality deteriorates)

If you try to send a video clip or high-quality screenshot of a game,

  • Unable to send due to capacity limit
  • Image quality deteriorates due to compression
A scene called

will appear.

If you’re a beginner,
it’s OK, but
when you start sharing frequently, it becomes quite stressful.

② Screen sharing is a bit difficult to see

Screen sharing is possible in the free version, but

  • Poor image quality
  • Movement is jerky
There is a restriction

.

スポンサーリンク

“I want to see my friend play”
“I want to be taught how to operate”

At times like this,
It becomes difficult to see text and small movements.

③ Appearance and profile are almost fixed

It doesn’t matter to beginners, but

  • I want to move the icon
  • I want to change the self-introduction for each server

Even if you think so, it is not possible with the free version.

What will become easier when I enter Nitro?

Now comes the main topic.
When you enter Nitro, there are parts that convenient on a life-changing level.

This hassle is completely eliminated.

Paste → Send → End
This simplicity is more comfortable than you can imagine.

Screen sharing will now be “visible”

Enter Nitro to improve screen sharing quality and movement.

, communication on Discord will become much easier.
