Discord announces plans to expand its successful Video Quests advertising format to mobile devices. This strategic move marks the company’s first mobile ad offering, significantly broadening reach for advertisers while maintaining Discord’s commitment to user-first, reward-focused advertising experiences. The initial pilot for Video Quests on Mobile will launch in June 2025, offering advertisers a prime opportunity to showcase trailers, make impactful announcements, and highlight premium content to Discord’s player community.
Obligatory Revolt mention.

Eh, may as well start convincing the boys. There’s no way Discord doesn’t just get worse from here.
Neat buuUUUuuut.
It’s basically a bunch of islands.
FOSS Discord with decent-looking tools? I’m in
Looks like no video calls or screensharing? If so, unfortunately won’t be a viable replacement for me.
Also, looks like there are self hosting options but they seem clumsy? From what I read, and happy to be corrected, a self hosted instance is completely separated from the rest of the Revolt ecosystem, meaning new accounts and everything for each.
I’m also curious how they will upkeep the servers without any kind of monetization.
Saving this for later.
