Is Discord Nitro Worth it? Maybe…

Discord Nitro is Discord's premium subscription service that allows you unlock additional perks and features. Being able to send custom emojis, customizing your profile, and uploading larger files are just a couple of many Nitro features.

But, which tier of Discord Nitro should I buy? Discord Nitro Basic or the full $10 Nitro? Is Discord Nitro worth it in the first place? Also is there any way I can get Nitro for cheap or maybe get the coveted free Discord Nitro? So many questions that I am pitching and this video contains so many answers. Even the answer to the question "Is twitter blue worth it".

If Discord were a little bit considerate and want more people joining Discord, they could make Basic Nitro with 2 server boosts and for Premium Nitro with 4 server boosts since we are paying much more.
For me sometimes Basic nitro keeps me happy just so i can use emotes & Stickers anywhere at all.

now that they changed nitro classic to nitro basic i stopped considering it. not like i was considering it beforehand

[endserenading]

I'd definitely consider basic if they also added profile banners and gif avatars/banners to it, but as it is right now it's not worth it just for emotes.

Everything NTTS just mentioned makes a lot of sense just in general - supporting a platform to exist because it has no ads, and just generally for the emojis and no-headache uploads makes a lot of sense. The only thing I'd change is the thing about regional pricing on Discord: I'd highly recommend against buying from other sellers unless you know the person insanely well (like, in person) or if you know what your doing and in general can get it for cheaper (because it's pretty easy to get the Turkish (TRY) plan if you know what your doin'). Nitro is pretty handy, but only buy it if you can afford it; there's zero point in supporting a platform if you can't fund yourself!

While I don't use nitro features much (except the two server boosts), I'm in the "contribute to keep Discord free and ad-free for everyone" group.
I pay for nitro mainly because of that. And I do use Discord quite a lot, even if most of what I use is free.

Nitro Basic is just fine for me. All I wanted was emoji and stickers. What they did by adding Nitro Basic was exactly what I've been wanting them to do for ages, which was separate the features that actually cost them a significant chunk of money (HD video streaming and larger uploads) from everything else. I always hated having to pay for full price Nitro when the only Nitro features I use are the ones that cost them nothing, and Nitro Classic somehow didn't even have those things.
Before Basic was introduced, I tried the "free Nitro" plugins, but they kind of suck since you can only send stickers/emoji as image embeds, meaning only in channels that have embeds enabled, and only one per message. It's worth $3 to have a better experience.

One thing to keep in mind for "us older folks" too, before Discord yeah there were free things like AIM, Windows Live Messenger, Skype, etc. but a lot of people used Teamspeak or Ventrilo. That cost $3-5/month minimum unless you already had your own VPS or dedicated server cause you're a nerd, then it was free but only cause you already pay for those. Discord replaced the need for TS/Vent, and for most people it's a much better option. Plus it was universal. You didn't have to swap to/from multiple clients to game with friends.

Nitro could be a little better/cheaper (RIP Classic Nitro) but it's really not that bad. The micro transactions are whatever, literally just cosmetic things not anything necessary. I appreciate their business model.

[eunoxncs]

Classic was definitely worth it. Now tho, i don't think either of them is worth it, just spend your 10 bucks on something else.

as someone that shares game clips often, posting a youtube link when the file is too large is honestly a better option than buying nitro. All I care about is emoji use...nitro basic covers that, so basic is for me. Thanks for helping me decide NTTS!

[Mridumoloy]

I was a Nitro sub since its launch in 2016 and the only reason was customisable nametags. But, when Discord stopped it, my Nitro subscription also got cancelled

[yopro_]

NTTS never fails to fill me up with his content

[LegoLoco]

I got it during the last 1 free month of Nitro promotion with Epic Games, and I've kept it since then. I really like the profile customization features (especially the server profiles), and the 500MB file uploads come in handy. So for now, at least, I'm definitely keeping it. As long as my dad's fine with continuing to pay for it, that is. I also have Vencord, and 2FA for both my accounts; the other being without Nitro.

[CouldBeCatFood]

Ngl you're getting way better at making thumbnails, congrats!

[imfunny]

I don't see a reason why you would buy nitro if you talk only with your friends.

[Renzor]

Time to get my discord news from the best source ever.

[xremist]

The answer is none of them, vencord is the best option

[bandiddums]

After like 2 years of using Discord and I got to try Nitro for a month, it really isn't worth it for me. The only thing I really cared about was the emoji everywhere, and the free boosts honestly. I'd love it more if the Nitro basic also gave some boost discounts as well, since the price of a boost being that close to a regular Nitro is just a blatant rip off. In any case though, this is basically just a how to spend your money anywhere kinda video lol. If you have any sort of care about your spending habits these tips should come naturally to you overtime

[solarcanic]

honestly, i wish theyd just make profile customization free. like i dont care about server boosts or whatever i just wanna have a literal BANNER without breaking out my wallet. Its why ANY OTHER social media wins over discord tbh bc why am i supposed to pay to use a static image as a banner. Hate to say it but tumblr has more customization for $0 (especially on desktop since it allows custom ccs coding for your page)

[Alosted]

6:55 love how you casually force opened the discord nitro ad

As someone who is playing a video game competitive, its pretty important to have good stream quality to show your raid what to do. Also having improved audio also makes stuff a lot better. 10€/ month is not that bad, when you are working. Other people spend hundreds of dollars for their car every month. I pay 49€ for my train ticket. Its all about budgeting.
