Ehhhh I see people with Nitro-included cosmetics but not a lot that have the individually-purchased cosmetics. They exist, sure, but not even close to as many.
I mod a server with 40,000 users and I'm scrolling through the member list as I type this. Majority are either unsubbed accounts or they have the cheap basic Nitro. A lot of the cosmetics I am seeing are the free ones they've given away in recent events. Not many users have full Nitro and have their profiles all decked out with additional cosmetics.
I have the "touch grass" one from April Fool's day. It's pretty funny.
I paid $30 for a year of Nitro basic. I don't think I'll do it again. All the actually useful features for me (longer messages and bigger uploads) are behind the more expensive one, and it's not worth it.
The only feature I would care about with nitro is using emojis everywhere but that feature isn't worth any amount of money let alone whatever discord is charging for it
I see some servers with hardly any, some with lots, the cat ears are popular. It depends on the communities you look in. Obviously the majority use Discord completely free, but there's a significant amount of Nitro subscribers and a good portion of them are also buying things in the shop.
