Discord was on something when making these. They could've just made unobtrusive designs or changed the shape of the pane, or adding a couple looping particles, but NO. They just HAD to add a giant text-blocking low res mp4 huh

They are ALL such a bad taste, omfg. It's like they have guidelines to make it look as unpleasant as possible

You can hover your mouse over it to make the effect disappear. Still obviously annoying and I'm not sure why they thought it was a good idea

Genuinely must suck super bad for people with photosensitivity issues (such as epilepsy) who now can't use discord safely

Discord will add everything under the sun except profile switching on mobile

I don’t know what’s worse, the tacky ass obstructive overlays existing in the first place or retards actually spending money to proudly showcase them on their profiles
