UI/UX is just miserable at times, sometimes the client crashes if you've seen too many image/videos. The account creation and device pairing is jank as hell, took me more than 15 min to pair a new because the verification kept failing. Just overall i can bear with the jankiness but if i was an average user, I'd quit.

The comeback. I paid for a teamsorak server when I was a teen and used it extensively with friends for many years. As I got older I have only used discord a handful of times to talk to other people already on that platform. Discord has always sucked Imo, if it's free you're the product. That's how it always has been.

I hope it gets even more shit so people will leave the platform.

Initial Public Offering.

Its where a company offers stock for public sale, and gets listed on the stock market.

Generally this corresponds with a company pushing hard to maximize profits over other metrics like user growth.
