They are already shitting on their users, recently they disabled permanent invite links for non-comminuty servers, if you want to get permanent invite links, you need to make your server a community, which I think it will make it public (not sure). In the other hand, Discord is still a giant cesspool of malware.

Also just the blatant push for introducing more and more nitro-only feature bloat into the average users UI. I haven't ever seen the gift button being used, but it's still right there on the text bar, where it serves no purpose.

I think I've only seen it used to give a suprise cheap gift in an active chat to send people crazy

that actually sounds a little fun. I'll admit that I've mostly used discord for the smaller communities
