Please don't post off topic stuff here. The topic is "who is hiring", not "who's making money", and a web browser would not be able to contain the load if it were.

It's a perfectly reasonable question--if somebody is going to go work at a place, knowing how that place makes money is really important.

Currently it seems to be via https://discordapp.com/nitro which has a smell of "c'mon, guys, help us out" about it.

I think they should charge people who want to create or run a server $5 a month or so, but that's just my uneducated opinion from the outside.

So, they lose money on every customer, but make it up in volume? :P
