Discord tightens file upload size limit for all users

Discord announced in a tweet (opens in new tab) that it is raising the file size limit for all users from 8MB to 25MB. This is great if you plan to share fun high-resolution photos, pet videos, and in some cases classified military documents (opens in new tab) without paying a monthly fee.

In a reply to a tweet, Discord clarified that the 25MB upload applies to all users, including Nitro and Nitro Basic non-subscribers. This will allow free Discord users to upload large files to their favorite Discord servers.

If they want to share even larger files, they can sign up for Nitro Basic for $3, which will allow them to upload 50 MB. Nitro users, on the other hand, pay $10/month for 500MB of uploads, as well as access to exclusive features such as 4K video streaming and fun emoji.

Let's hope this is the beginning of more improved features coming to Discord. Given that more and more people are using Discord, it makes sense to add these quality of life improvements for all of its approximately 196 million active users (opens in new tab).

Speaking of features, Discord recently announced that it will implement a sound board (opens in new tab) for voice channels and voice calls within weeks. If you want to have your own version of the obnoxious Morning Zoo radio show filled with air horns and fart noises, go ahead.

I'll be sitting around waiting for the voice messages to be added. Don't let me down, Discord.
