They find that the free version includes most of the essential functionalities needed for communication, gaming, and community building. - **The option to upgrade to Discord Nitro provides additional benefits such as higher quality streams** Larger file uploads, and more customization options, which some find worth the price. They say that the free version is sufficient for most needs, and the paid features are seen as enhancements rather than necessities. ### What holds them back - **The cost of the Nitro subscription is higher than they would like** And they feel that some features should be available without a subscription. They indicate that certain functionalities, like advanced server customization and larger file uploads, being locked behind a paywall can be a drawback, especially for smaller communities or users on a budget. - **The emphasis on promoting paid plans to be too aggressive and feel that the value offered by the Nitro subscription does not always justify its price** ## Price & value in reviewers' words * * * 5 out of 5 stars > "The payed version Discord Nitro is not too expensive at $10." Reviewer: Verified Reviewer Role: Owner * * * 5 out of 5 stars > "In my day to day experience the free version is perfect for what I need to do." Reviewer: Anthony Q. Role: Customer Support Specialist * * * 5 out of 5 stars > "There are a few things I'm not a fan of are the paid features. When you buy Nitro for roughly $10 a month, you get 2 server boosts for a server of your choosing, the ability to use Stickers/Emotes on any server, longer posts, and a 500mb upload limit. While these are good features, I'm not a fan of how it's locked behind a paywall when Discord is a free to use Application." Reviewer: Joe Felix R. Role: Entertainer * * * 4 out of 5 stars > "Also some features are locked behind monthly Nitro subscription which can be a bit too expensive." Reviewer: Iman G.
