True, they don't seem that smart.Not in recent years. I would say it's just a common thing to hate on them. Ever since 2013 their image as a whole went down the drain. But in my opinion, I would put more trust in Microsoft over companies like Google, Apple, Amazon, and even Facebook.
It's high. That's $100 per active user. I would think 5 billion is more realistic, but MS is just looking to bleed some cash on hand and continue to play the keep away acquisition game.if Discord approached Microsoft and asked for 10 billion...that's just silly.
No shot Discord is worth 10 billion.
half a billion, take it or leave it.
Their most recent valuation when they raised money was 7bn.if Discord approached Microsoft and asked for 10 billion...that's just silly.

As others have mentioned there is a couple of reasons that Microsoft would be interested in buy discord if it was up for sale. 1) hurts Google cloud who I think is their existing cloud provider
On a serious note though, these "social" apps, websites, and platforms are usually very expensive. $10billion although seems a bit high, I don't think it will be that overvalued. I'm just not sure of the idea if MS needs to enter this space.

Lobbying matters. It gives certain companies priviledged treatment.Funny how Sonys bid for crunchy roll gets held up by the doj but Microsoft can go on multi billion dollar spending sprees
There is also the difference between vertical mergers and horizontal mergers.Lobbying matters. It gives certain companies priviledged treatment.
So funny. The sad reality is that their fanatics do it for free.Of course they will. They'll turn Discord into a giant FUD factory that can only be used by the Xbros to plot and conspire against poor Mother Sony.
Also the team at Digital Foundry will make up the new board of directors and get a big raise in their usual Xbox shill pay.
You meant to say all fanatics do stuff like this for free. I think Nintendo fans the least toxic, but xbros and Sony-boys can rival each other in terms of toxicity.So funny. The sad reality is that their fanatics do it for free.
Enable mic input, allow it to run in the background and maybe allow it to run on the side.
They also need a studio who will agree to dedicate themselves to the KI franchise. Amazon bought the only one willing.to.They can spend 10B $ for this, but can't spent 30 million $ to make a proper AAA KI game, what a piece of joke this company is.
