Messenging app Discord Nitro announces that it is launching four new features on its paid tier level including a soundboard feature. This will allow subscribers to be able to send out audio reactions to voice channels. The soundboards will be a selection of audio files that are selected by the company itself or uploaded by several managers of select communities.
Other new features for Nitro subscribers are subtle including the super reactions that allow for certain emoji reactions to chat messages that become animated in place of the normal icon. Super reactions are notably limited as the subscribers are only able to use five on a weekly basis while other tiers including Classic and Nitro Basic can only use two.
