Went ahead and canceled my nitro.
Also cancelled mine. I don't suspect this change will actually directly affect me personally, but it's the final straw on a big pile of straw. I know plenty of people here will admonish those of us that were paying for it in the first place, but better late than never I say.
Not entirely sure what I'm going to transition my group to. It's quite likely we won't actually have one replacement, but many. We used text, voice, video, and screensharing on Discord (plus many other, though less important features). I don't know of an alternative that does all of it.
The only person I know who had nitro also had already cancelled their subscription before I even talk with them and they use lots of other mainstream platforms like ~~twitter~~ regularly, so I was surprised.
Does Element not support all of that?
