Discord, a platform somehow worse than Facebook, because at least Facebook support uses real humans. Recently, my account was disabled under pretense of “Selling Cracked Accounts or hacks”. As I’ve done no such thing, I contact support. 7 hours pass, I get a reply from their automated bot saying they won’t reinstate my account. Wouldn’t be an issue, I’d be able to keep going with emails if it wasn’t for the fact Discord full on deletes your account, with no way to recover it. All of this following me trying to apply for a Bilingual Japanese Customer Support job for the company, and purchased a full year of their Nitro Subscription. Not only are they wasting time, but they refuse to give me actual human contact. My long-running account of 3 years is doomed to perish, and it’s all in the hands of The Discord Messiahs. There’s a reason everyone complains about the discord support, and how often they get falsely terminated just to speak to a degrading robot. If only they had a better support team, or even just helped me not lose an account after I conveniently drop a huge amount of cash on their service, something so I don’t lose contacts I’ve built. Only one can hope, and I’m sure the Discord Staff reply to this review will be just as robotic, if they’re even able to stomach reading this review, since I know they’re not too keen on criticism.
So discord is a nice app its easy to connect and all. But, the administration is terrible. Reports don’t do anything and even with the chat scan things can bypass the system so easily. Personally, a story i have is that my friend was screen sharing a server WITH GORE, CARTEL, SH, AND PHOTOS/VIDEOS OF MASS MURDERERS KILLING PEOPLE. Why would that server exist? And I’m traumatized by the fact it even exists. I’ve also been told to kill myself multiple times, to slit my wrists, I’ve been doxxed, there is so much things wrong. And the admins do nothing, i actually spoke to one by DMS and he was just pedophilic. People who use discord (most) Get traumatized, Groomed, Or is one of the groomers, tells people to commit suicide, wants to hurt others, just out of their heads. To the point where they seriously need therapy. But, discord? Oh yeah they don’t care! Maybe It would be better if the moderation actually does something.
Good platform. The interface can be a but unintuitive and things are hard to find, but once you get used to it most of the functionality is there.
I respect the culture of people being free to remain anonymous and have whatever they want as a username, however it would be nice if I could input the real names of friends I know outside of discord, so their real name will display next to their handle in my view. No one else would be able to see the names of the people I input, just me. Maybe it could be a feature that’s only possible with people in my friends list. I don’t think this would interfere with the current culture, but it would help a lot with keeping track of who’s who in large groups where I know most of the members in real life. I’d love to see a feature like this implemented. It would make the platform a lot more practical for a wider range of uses, and accessible to a wider audience.
i love this app i’ve been using it for a few year now, but ever since the new update my emojis aren’t there. it doesn’t matter what server im in the server emojis aren’t there i just have the default ones that i have on my phone. i’ve deleted the app, logged out and back in multiple times and it still happens. this is the first time it’s ever happened to me and idk what else to do. i bought nitro again the other day and didn’t have this problem it’s like ever since the update it started doing it. it started doing it a couple hours ago and nothing helps.
Discord is a great web application. The mobile application however is less than stellar. Constant glitches, as each update introduces 50 more bugs for every one they fix. Mobile connection spotty at best, and I will randomly experience a glitch that causes me to have to restart the app and experience stupid connection issues despite my connection working perfectly fine. Today, for example, after running into one issue, I’ve been having connection problems with this idiotic app for ~18 minutes. Unacceptable port—do better.
I love using discord but I wish the mobile app had some more of the desktop features. I use discord for both fun gaming stuff and contact with more professional online people so I use multiple accounts to keep servers more organized. Desktop lets you switch between accounts easily but mobile doesn’t. While both desktop and mobile let you see what you’re friends are listening to on Spotify, only desktop let you join in and listen along. I hope these features are brought over to the mobile app in future updates
I’ve been using Discord since 2018 and had multiple accounts. Discord is a very great platform for meeting new people and having fun or just planning something. However, since New Years: The app has been getting buggier and buggier each update. Sometimes even crashing your app. Some stuff really just cannot preform well as before or just bugs out so horribly to where you have to restart it. I mainly recommend using Discord on PC as it is less buggier. However as mentioned: still a great platform!
I don’t know who runs QA/QC at discord but they really need to do a better job. Every app update brings some new bug and breaks basic functionality. Latest update made all of my channels except for 1 disappear from my main server. The only solution is a full app delete then reinstall. Discord should fix these problems before pushing new releases. I would have given only 1 star but I’m feeling generous for your poor interns given access to prod who didn’t know any better. Get it together, please!
First off let me say, almost everything is “Nitro” but that’s not what I came here for. One of the problems I am having is in the connections. Once you sign in to something, Spotify, YouTube, ETC you can’t change the acc. I have been trying for a while. On top of that when trying to sign in to Spotify through Facebook you can’t change the account discord does not give it you the option to. I don’t want to trash on a app people like so I will leave it at that. But I’m not satisfied.
I love Discord. So much that I’ve had a nitro subscription for the past couple of months.
Yesterday I uninstalled discord and when I reinstalled it I noticed that in the emote search there we NO custom emotes. Even if I’m toggling a server that servers emotes don’t show up. Stickers are still there, but ALL custom emotes are gone for some reason. Please help and I’ll change this review because I do love discord and use it daily. But this is infuriating.
