Popular messaging app Discord is reportedly set to launch in-app ads to help promote game developers, and its coming soon.
In early March 2024, Discord revealed that “sponsored quests”, or ads would be added to the platform to help “support game developers” through the popular chat app.
Discord didn’t initially share a release date, or even how they’re going to implement ads into Discord’s overall design, other than mentioning that the sponsored quests would “tastefully” be integrated.
A report from The Wall Street Journal claims that Discord’s sponsored quests will be landing on the platform this week, and will be displayed at the bottom left of the app.

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I read about this, and you will have the ability to turn the ad’s off in settings.
They are optional. For now.
For now!
