No option to disable this

I just got this pop up message in Discord, and it showed up for me in every server I'm in. I looked through all the settings and options including Notifications and there was no way for me to disable or manage these types of notifications. "Maybe later" is not a substitute for "not interested", that implies that I want this at a future date (which I never do). There needs to be a way to disable this sort of spam. For now I used uBlock Origin to block the element (because I won't click on "maybe later" if I don't want it to show up again), but that's not a great solution, particularly since I'm a paid user who isn't interested in having ads shoved down my throat.

This is probably just a linguistics thing. Agree, button should be labelled "go away" because I guarantee 100% of users saw that and immediately thought "how do I get rid of this" before actively considering whatever it's shoving down their throats. That said, that is the button to press to dismiss or get rid of the popup. Just.. pretend it doesn't say anything. It's just text on a button that miscommunicates the button's function.

Please do keep telling Discord to cut it out with their popups though, can't go anywhere on the platform anymore without something prompting the user, and it's just as bad.
