“The last of the ring/silent switch, and the first to say goodbye to Lightning.”
“A quieter corner of the internet, logged off with its servers still warm.”
Guilded was a VoIP, instant messaging, and digital distribution platform where users gathered in communities called servers, talking over voice and video, trading texts, media, and files. Founded by Eli Brown, a former Facebook and Xbox employee, it ran on Windows, Linux, macOS, Android, and iOS. Roblox Corporation bought it in August 2021 for $90 million, and from then on it lived as part of the Roblox family.
On September 29, 2025, Roblox discontinued the product, and on December 19, 2025, Guilded was formally retired, its address now redirecting visitors to Roblox Communities. It went out not with a crash but a redirect — folded into something bigger, remembered by the servers that once called it home.
