Microsoft buys communities. From the 20% Facebook investment to LinkedIn, GitHub, Minecraft, etc they are aggregating and integrating massive, generation defining audiences. Discord is most definitely that for gamers, pandemic teens, and frankly any SMB with foresight. It’s a fantastic platform. It has the same moderation issues that all online communities have, but it generally happens at a server level.
It’s very much a fit for their portfolio, and it’s a great time to sell for them. Nitro can’t do that much in sales, but certainly Microsoft will find a way to make money with it.
