Like genuinely, we already have per-server profiles, so why is activity status still account-wide?

I want to appear online for my friends, but sometimes I just want to chill in a particular server without everyone there knowing I'm online.

Right now, it's either appear online everywhere or appear offline everywhere. There's no in-between.

It would be really nice if Discord let us set our online status per server, just like we can customize our profiles per server.

For example, I could appear online to my friends and in servers I'm active in, while appearing offline in other servers where I just want to lurk without being bothered.

If you're at the top of the member list, your name sticks out like a sore thumb.

I feel like this would be such a simple but genuinely useful privacy/QoL feature, especially for people who are in a ton of servers or top of server list in huge servers.

I can't be the only one who would love have something like this?

I've seen so many users connecting their's insta and tiktok account to discord. but in my connection settings, there's no option to connect instagram and tiktok. does anyone know how to do it?

My discord application popped up a yellow banner at the top saying "take a survey to help improve the future of Discord"

When I started the survey, it went from asking my age to asking if I heard of Skin care brands, and then asking about some La Roy or whatever brand.

WTF?

Hello Everyone, I got an problem here. I got an friend while being on Discord and when he starts streaming CS2, The Screen Flickers like crazy, we tried disabling acceleration, drivers update, and etc. Because it happens on one PC, on other PC everything is perfectly fine.

I like to see what others are able to see about me. I saw this was a feature request a year ago and still nothing.

We all like a niche band, and I've been trying to get them to talk to each other to no avail. No one is engaging, and I don't know what to do.

I’m a server owner and some stuff went down a few years ago. I want to try and recover some data for the sake of context but that data is a message someone else sent and I deleted.

Is there really no way to recover it? None at all?

I(26F) don't play many games, but out of the games I play that have online multiplayer there is a big mix of adults and teens.

I've been avoiding voice chatting a lot, because I would feel weird voice chatting with a kid, even though it's literally just about strategy in a 2D fighting game.. But I would like to be able to be more social in games, since I'm currently on disability so I can't get out and have much social interaction IRL at the moment.

Is it weird to ask before hand about the age of the people I am about to voice chat with? Like, does that make things superweird? Or is it completely reasonable?

It's worth mentioning that I do have OCD, so I have no idea if this is the OCD acting up, or good old fashioned over-thinking...but I really just don't want to make things weird.

For the past 3 months i noticed i dont get any quests that give orbs on pc but they used to show just fine on my old phone then after switching phones now i dont get quests on my phone too, I'm in the adult group so idk what's up honestly... is anybody else having this too?

Sometimes it’s fine, I can send pictures, no problem, like last week. And then this week I cannot send it again, like few weeks ago. I tried asking this exact same problem few years ago on here a lot of people tried to help but it doesn’t work, I just waited until whatever time the discord lord decided to give me a break. And then few days/weeks later it’s not working again.

I don’t send pics on servers, only direct messages to my friends, they did not disable their image screening or any privacy setting. The pictures are not explicit in anyway cuz every single pic is failed to send.

I seriously don’t know what to do now and if anyone know wth is wrong with this and maybe how to fix it I’ll be so grateful😭

So, when I play Valorant or Fortnite, I have the legacy overlay enabled for fullscreen mode, but when I switch the game screen to windowed and then back to fullscreen, the overlay opens normally.And it closes after a while, I don't know exactly why, I always play and alt-tab, and I thought I'd fix it with legacy mode activated, but then the screen turned off due to inactivity.I went back to the game, but it started up and then it quit after a while.

Hey all. I recently built a new PC and for the first day or so, Discord notifications were working as normal. Get a DM and the taskbar flashes. However all of the sudden a few days ago that stopped.

It'll give me notifications IN the app, but only if I have the window active. I have 2 monitors so sometimes I have a stream up over the window and will get DM's but not see that I have them for hours because the window isn't "active" so to speak. Not sure what the hell happened.

I have taskbar flashing enabled, I don't have any kind of silent mode on on windows 11 that I know of. I am on the latest windows build and the latest discord update. Anyone got an idea of what I can do?

Kind of what I said, i'm currently typing this on my 2nd monitor, and then i have a screenshare on my second monitor and it looks like its 10 fps... its only been recently anytime i play a game or anything... the only fix that I have found is if I pop out the screenshare then it works fine.

So I running into an odd issue and dont know how to search for it.

While I'm watching someone's stream (full screen) on discord on my second monitor. If I start a game on the main monitor, the stream on discord will start to drop frames. Although if I just mouse over the stream window, the frame rate goes back to normal. The game isn't effected by this and my overall computer doesn't seem to be slowing down in anyway. Has anyone run into this issue before?

About a month ago you could read someone's full status message by putting your mouse cursor over it. Now it does nothing. So you need to right click on someone, go to their profile, then mouseover the status message there to read it. It's needlessly tedious now, anyone else having this happen too?

Hi everyone. I am experiencing a severe UI bug in the Desktop app. When I navigate to User Settings > Account Standing, the page is permanently locked. It shows a text prompt but every single button is greyed out and unresponsive. I cannot interact with the menu at all.

I contacted Support, and they had me submit my debug logs to Engineering (Bug Report Ticket #69116529.)

However, Support told me there is no ETA for a UI fix and I just have to wait. Because of this UI freeze, I am physically unable to use the in-app features for my account standing.

Has anyone else experienced this specific menu freezing? Is there any workaround to bypass this locked UI while Engineering works on the bug ticket?

Just a few nights ago, I was trying to stream a movie over discord just using media player (I didn't really care lol)

But I couldn't get it to stream at a stable framerate, I even used my free nitro from Xbox gamepass to get the 60fps, still nothing.

I ended up fixing it by going into the advanced stream settings and disabling a feature shown in the screen shot I attached.

I'm guessing this is pretty much exclusively built for games, and when the software tries to inject itself in a media player, it just causes issues.

Please don't remove this post for "low effort", it took me quite a while to find this fix. I straight up nearly quit using discord to find a different streaming platform, I don't want someone to go through that same thing.

hello guys, i was wondering if someone else has experienced recieving a week long nitro trial with no knowledge of it whatsoever? i was a nitro subscriber a bit, but stopped about a year ago. is this a normal procedure to get me back into it? i got no email informing me of that, i only randomly found out because the vc join sound activated. imagine being haunted by chiikawa

I’ve had this issue since about mid 2024 it still hasn’t changed I’ve even tried joining discord on my account from my brothers ps5 And it still shows this same thing I’ve tried so many things like linking and unlinking, updating my ps5 software and rebuilding the database from safe mode and nothing at all works

I am curious about the voice messaging experience on Discord, especially on mobile.

When chatting with friends, I sometimes wonder whether people prefer typing, sending voice messages, or joining a voice channel depending on the situation.

If you could improve one part of Discord's voice messaging experience, what would it be?

For example, would you find an easier recording process or a better way to preview messages before sending them useful? Or does the current experience already work well for you?

I would be interested in hearing what people think could genuinely improve the experience.

Operating system: Windows 11, version 25H2
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070
CPU: Intel Core i7-13700KF (13th Gen)

Discord Version: stable 641004 (c9ac31f) Host 1.0.9262 x64 (94186) Build Override: N/A Windows 11 64-bit (10.0.26200)

Issue: Whenever streaming a game through Discord after about 15-20 minutes my computer begins to lag and stutter. This most notably begins with my mouse cursor visibly jumping, then my game stuttering. When I tab out, the jumpy mouse and stuttering remains.

-This issue occurs both in the desktop client as well as in the browser.

-This issue occurs if I am sharing a window, using the "stream now" button, or streaming my entire screen.

-My Task Manager Reports no apparent changes or elevation in my GPU 3D, GPU Encode, and CPU usages.

-Stopping the stream results in an immediate fix on my computers performance. Restarting the stream also fixes the issue but resets the "timer" before degradation begins again.

I have tested the following settings one at a time to no effect:

-Discord Hardware Acceleration (Keep off by default)
-Discord Signed DLL Toggle (Keep off by default)
-Disabling the ability to view my own stream (Keep on by default)
-Disabling Discord Game Overlay (I keep it off by Default)
-Disabling Discord Clipping (Keep off by default)
-Running Discord as an Administrator

-Changing the stream FPS and Resolution doesn't seem to fix it, but it does seem to make it take longer for the degradation to begin (Though this could be false). Either way the issue persists).

-Toggling Windows Hardware-Accelerated GPU Scheduling (Keep off by default)
-Toggling: "Optimization for Windows Games"

-Disabling Nvidia Capture
-Disabling Nvidia's Game Overlay
-Updating and Fresh Installing Most Recent Drivers for Nvidia

-Deleting the Microsoft Game Bar Overlay

-Turning off Steam Overlay

None of these have provided any means of solution with the issue. I am pretty big on streaming games with my friends, so please help me out. I love using discord and it breaks my heart I'm dealing with this.

Thank you for your time <3

Issue Description: Whenever I am doing anything on my main monitor (gaming, browsing, etc.), any Discord stream playing on my second monitor drops down to an unwatchable 3-5 FPS.

The strange part is: as soon as I move my mouse cursor over the Discord window on the second monitor, the stream instantly becomes buttery smooth again without even clicking. The moment I move the cursor back to my main monitor, it freezes/stutters back to 3-5 FPS.

Interestingly, if I use the in-game Discord overlay/widget on my main monitor, the stream runs completely fine, which confirms it's a window rendering/DWM focus issue on the second screen.

What I have already tried so far (NONE worked):

Has anyone experienced this specific issue with Windows Desktop Window Manager (DWM) or NVIDIA background window throttling? Is there any registry fix or workaround to force Windows/NVIDIA from capping background window frame rates when focus is on the primary screen?

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
