Some thought that the introduction of Discord's officially-sanctioned YouTube Watch Together app in 2022 (which supports ads) would be the final nail in the coffin. At least one other popular bot has gotten the boot, but others remain today. Google has not been as ferocious as anticipated in persecuting music bots in the years since.
When Groovy shuttered in 2021, users worried that it signaled the end of all music bots on the platform, and as an extension, the end of the salad days of Discord-hyper-convenient and unmarred by business realities. RIP Vexera, you were a faithful (if slightly buggy) companion for long nights of hanging.
