Compressing them a bit(or offering the option to) before sending them would earn you a lot of goodwill. They're mostly just sending funny videos/recordings/images from their phones. I don't think anyone uses discord to share files or to host them. I'm not going to suddenly stop paying for nitro(I like my animated emotes way too much for that) but it is a tiny bit ridiculous that one of the most common features for an IM client is purposefully gated behind a paywall. Part 2: How to Download Videos of Mobile (Android and iPhone) For users who log on to discord from a mobile phone, the procedure of downloading a video can be a bit more complicated than when using a PC.

Discord can definitely stand on its own merits without having to resort to a limitation like this to pull in one or two more customers. Whether you are using a Discord Web or on Windows or Mac desktop, there is no need to use a Discord video downloader. I really don't think you guys have to do this though. Automatically scaling the image so it fits within the requirements would basically remove one of the incentives/advantages of purchasing nitro, therefore making nitro more appealing. If you regularly send pictures that are even just a little over 8mb a nitro subscription would basically remove that worry. I will forever love and support Discord(I'm a nitro subscriber) but this is obviously something of a cash grab. In this scenario, sending something is better than sending nothing, and would save users the hassle of opening another program just to resize and save the media for sending.Īs a side note, given today's content 8 MB is absurdly small when compared to other free cloud-based chat platforms where hundreds of MB per file are permitted to be stored and forwarded. If you are trying to send an image over the file size limit, it would be great if the client notified you and at least made an attempt to fit the file to the size limit. The development team worked hard to ensure that they have delivered a high-quality product.

With Premium, you can remove the Tweetshift branding from the bot response and look more personal for the community. The mobile client takes it a step further for videos, where there is a slider that goes up and down for the desired quality and output size. Tweetshift is a high-quality Twitter bot for Discord. In other clients, for example Telegram (which is a great example for this), you are offered the option to send images and videos as-is, or you can choose to have the client resize/compress to send faster. All too often when trying to paste in a screenshot from a game (print screen key, followed by Ctrl+V shortcut) the 'Your files are too powerful' message appears.
