But realistically for a free tool with the functionality it has. The skippable microtranactions arent a big deal. The core functionality hasnt been effected at all.

Discord got popular because it did Skype and Mumble better than both, but it has suffered a lot from Enshitification
How has it suffered at all in enshitification?
Ah yes, I definitely want banner ads, “Quests” and a Microtransactions Store for NAME COLOURS
That’s not Enshitification at all…
