Perhaps I'm just old, but picking the color of your profile is all zoomers wanted?

I mean shit, I'm not going to be happy until I can have auto-playing music on my profile.

Haven't you seen how so many are crazy with discord paying options that is basically custom flashy avatar profile pages?

The kids nowadays would have their brains exploded if they saw any hi5 page with custom css.

I had to go look this up since I don't use Discord, and I think I just had my first old person moment. $10 for a freaking frame around your avatar? What in the hell?

Discord also has an option to pay for server boosting (increased bandwidth and storage limits) which is a much more reasonable thing to pay for imo
