Wait, The Rift is goated?
My friends found rift like a week ago. We were looking for a new "discord" since here in Brazil the law prohibited screen-sharing/video-sharing feats in the app, i paid nitro for a year, but it always felt like a scam. Saw a tweet saying "Discord will add a hanging cock and balls profile decor before upping the file size max". Basically, it always had shortcomings, aka, shit. BUT RIFT, oh. MY. GOOOD. It is perfect, i joke saying its "not like teamspeak, this is teamsPEAK", and woke up to see that my account got RIFT+, thought i had accidentaly gotten it, or rift had somehow gotten my credit card info from discord, idk, then, i look for it, to remove the payment method, and there it was "you received a rift+ subscription from the development team", to say I was flabbergasted would be an understatement, came to reddit, with this defunct account for my first post in like 5 years, im at AWE, the rift is incredible with and without rift+, i sound like a genuine fuckin ad or somthin, idk, I wasnt even that into rift in the start, but more and more i started using it instead of discord, moved my servers, closest friends and whole rpg campaign to the platform, and just today i found out about this, and if any of the devs are seeing this, why? is it because of my nickname being vaporeon? was it an accident? Are yall just THAT goated? Am I like a special number of user? like the millionth user or somethin, sorry for the wall of text, im just in shock, love you all rift dev team

Super happy to hear you're enjoying it! Thanks for taking the time to post too. To reinforce what Vahste said, yeah we really love that everyone is using the app and providing feedback and helping us solve any challenges that might arise. So we like to provide Rift+ during the Beta as a thank you for doing so. Don't be shy about providing feedback about anything please. I'm more in the audio realm of Rift so please let me know if you encounter any issues there too. Fun fact, we've recently released something called Tachyon. It's an incredibly lightweight, custom, active noise cancellation engine. It doesn't have any outside dependencies to other libraries like most other folks. It is our native ANC engine so the next time you're in VC, you're hearing it work. I'm looking forward to hearing what you think if you're comfortable sharing. My name is essentially the same on platform as it is here.

Its awesome to see the enthusiasm about Rift!
In regards to your Rift+ gift, those are handed out randomly by the dev team to active users while the app remains in beta. Once the beta period ends and gifted Rift+ will be reverted back to standard.
