Discord announces plans to expand its successful Video Quests advertising format to mobile devices. This strategic move marks the company’s first mobile ad offering, significantly broadening reach for advertisers while maintaining Discord’s commitment to user-first, reward-focused advertising experiences. The initial pilot for Video Quests on Mobile will launch in June 2025, offering advertisers a prime opportunity to showcase trailers, make impactful announcements, and highlight premium content to Discord’s player community.
Unfortunately, matrix doesn’t have a viable plan for federation, meaning that you’d better onboard on matrix.org or else.
People saying self-hosting mastodon is hard never had to touch matrix. It’s not hard, the protocol is literally broken to the point where starting again is not an option.
I’m all in for ditching discord, but matrix is at most mediocre in almost every aspect. It’s wild how much easier it used to be with xmpp.
