general-chat

[foggy isle]

Try if the launch pad wll help u a lil

[marble sierra]

i mean im fine with that, if updates involve un-intuitive UI that feels like it was designed by an overly-ambitious grad student i dont want them

[meager coral]

Lauch pad?

[broken needle]

Ah yes, so you talked to millions and millions of users /hj
(You did this to me, I can do it right back )

[marble sierra]

sadge

[strange plinth]

my uncle works at nintendo and he said they all hate it >:c

[lethal cipher]

Fr

[marble sierra]

it doesnt bother me either way to not use mobile, so i just wont

[chilly saffron]

I did! Every last one.

[polar night]

sweet, that'll be on my list for tomorrow then. I'll probably still abstain from using mobile at all though in order to make sure it transmits lower user metrics

[broken needle]

[chilly saffron]

You were the only one who liked it. Your friends said you're lying 😄

[lethal cipher]

I had to sit for a minute to understand what Nintendo has to do with this 😭

[broken needle]

[reef nacelle]

lmfao my app still hasn’t updated but from what i’ve gathered it’s just the old server layout + the rest of tabs v2

[broken needle]

I've been heccin bamboozled!

[opaque crater]

Tell him they nailed Smash Bros.

[strange plinth]

oh sorry. I was. joking... I should. Not that.

[meager coral]

No updates has many perals if you know them a d are willing to take that risk go for it but I would be wary

[foggy isle]

Settngs, advance, launch pad, select pull tab

[crystal cypress]

if the old version doesn't come back or the option doesn't come back, I'll consider using discord on my phone.

[broken needle]

Pretty much

[strange plinth]

he says thank you, please buy more DLC

[lethal cipher]

It's okay! I haven't been up for long!

[broken needle]

The old version won't be back, and there won't be an option to switch

[opaque crater]

Emergency use only🤣

[chilly saffron]

lmao

[opaque crater]

Never bought one yet ill consider it now though

[strange plinth]

lollll

[polar night]

I'll just do mobile web if I keep using dc at all. This is honestly enough to make me move everything I use my own server for into Obsidian

[strange plinth]

what if we all switched to teams, the Bing of chat apps?

[dry cave]

I am gonna go download an older version apk

[strange plinth]

I said I'd stop joking but I lied

[chilly saffron]

don't forget to review the app spig!

[hearty idol]

Can we get a Mozilla Firefox equivalent to discord

[broken needle]

God no. I hate teams with a burning passion

[meager coral]

And it has several reasonable levels so after a few bug fixes I guess that fixes the main issues

[broken needle]

Their lack of security or any a11y features at all is deeply upsetting

And I'm not even kidding

[strange plinth]

yeah, no teams is. Pretty dumb

AND slow!

[foggy isle]

I hope, im tryng to get used to it now

[chilly saffron]

Using teams is almost as horrible as this new UI. heyoooo

[strange plinth]

oof lol

[dry cave]

Ofc I will review it by letting them know what kind of worse updates they get and doesn't even gives us a option to change it back

[meager coral]

Ahh the keyboard pops up evey time

[foggy isle]

Yea i hate tht

[polar night]

I am not a fan of Teams, before switching to dc I used Slack for my friends since we already did that at work, I just hated the message limit on the free plan, but I guess since I was paying for nitro I'd just be able to subscribe to slack instead

[broken needle]

You're going to have to use the update one way or another. It's a waste of resources and money to keep two versions going for the same thing

[left rune]

teams is cursed but so widely used what can u do

[polar night]

you severely overestimate my dependence on discord, it is not hard to switch

[strange plinth]

silver lining! kinda. muddy. gray lining.

[meager coral]

Eep it has inconsistent functionality

[broken needle]

Complain about it

[dry cave]

Shouldn't have spent money on this app if I knew they will just dress it up and call it a girl and say here is your new app

[gloomy valve]

hhi guyys

[marble sierra]

i mean im not going to quit using discord, i still use it for free and I still use it as a file hosting service in my own server lol im happy with being a net cost for them in exchange for talking to friends

[meager coral]

Wish it was for the server menu that's what I need to be there

[left rune]

unfortunately me complaining abt it will not get the entire town i work for to switch

[broken needle]

I even tried reaching out to Microsoft's Teams team (ha) directly, and got the "It's intentional" reply

[chilly saffron]

I support complaining on the internet. I second this

[left rune]

necessary evil i fear

[broken needle]

Even though signing out of Teams is not intuitive at all

[polar night]

one benefit of working support for fortune500s is that when MS and other huge companies call for help, their engineers have to listen to your complaints until you're done xD

[dry cave]

What's with these shiii new icon of nitros

[meager coral]

Try closing zoom

[marble sierra]

i already halted my nitro when they introduced the username update so its not like im paying for it, idc what they do in terms of whether i will use it or switch

[broken needle]

Pro tip: Never sign into teams on a public computer. It's so hard to actually sign out of it

[dry cave]

Anybody has a older version of discord apk ?

[broken needle]

[dry cave]

Alr thnx

[strange plinth]

we got an entirely new graphics pack for everything forever until the next one

[broken needle]

No, they're not publicly released

Those aren't official

[dry cave]

And it's trash

[drifting lark]

Is it possibly to make adress to stop discord making these new unwanted "upgrades"

[meager coral]

Anyone that wants to use the apk if you think discord security is bad now its 10000 times worse if you don't update

[marble sierra]

fund raising

[dry cave]

-

[broken needle]

Bud, security didn't change. It's still just as safe as ever

[strange plinth]

I'm envoking Thumper's Law

[marble sierra]

no, discord doesnt care if you dont like it

[broken needle]

A UI change isn't going to delete all the safety and security measures

[polar night]

If you have a rooted android device it would be possible to pull the apk wouldn't it? I think Google switched to some new format tho after windows added android app support, it's been awhile since I rooted devices and such

[broken needle]

That goes against a bunch of ToS's, I believe

[fallow tendon]

hi

[drifting lark]

So global nitroboicot is only way?

[broken needle]

Either way, it's not very safe to just download an apk off the internet

[marble sierra]

you dont need a rooted device, the big site that i wont name again in case its against the rules has plenty of verified old apks

[gloomy valve]

hhi

[meager coral]

That's true but more exploits are found over time so if a large number of people stop updating at a certan version people will find every hole in the design

[strange plinth]

hi

[polar night]

ah nice, if it exists I can find it. If the MD5 checksums validate then we gucci

[opaque crater]

I do it often but then again i know where im gettin em from

[gloomy valve]

hhow are u

[orchid river]

they should make it an optional feature then ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[broken needle]

Yeah, and that's why you keep updating

[strange plinth]

not bad, you?

[left rune]

not endorsing ppl to downgrade in case its against TOS but all imma say is be careful and know what youre doing

[broken needle]

That would be a waste of resources

[gloomy valve]

how to get eearly spporter badge/

[broken needle]

You can't

[strange plinth]

time machine!

[broken needle]

You had to have nitro before October 2018

[orchid river]

You needed to have bought Discord Nitro before October 2018

[gloomy valve]

really

[opaque crater]

Id change alot of things if i had 1 of those

[left rune]

actually if i stopped boosting would i lose my early booster badge

[broken needle]

Yes really

[polar night]

I am in the middle of a dr who rewatch so I feel this lol

[strange plinth]

Wouldn't we all...

[broken needle]

Not as far as I know

[opaque crater]

Lol

[orchid river]

Early supporter is unrelated to boosting, you would lose the boosting icon after 3 days

[meager coral]

My Pont is a bunch of people seem to be looking to not update

[novel prawn]

Just tell me 1 thing who came up with this BS new discord idea?

[left rune]

i meant nitro, not boosting sorry

brain scrambled

[marble sierra]

idk it sounds like youve never actually done it so you think its unsafe

[orchid river]

It also would stay

[meager coral]

Get millions invest in gamestop

[foggy isle]

Not 3 days, mre than tht

[left rune]

[strange plinth]

diamond hands!

[broken needle]

I have not, but I know how downloading files off the internet goes

[marble sierra]

yeah, and there are websites that exist that vet and verify files before you download them so you have more assurance that the file you are downloading isnt a virus

[chilly saffron]

so was making the new ui, but that didn't stop them. heyooo

[polar night]

at the rate they're going the icons are all going to be nfts

[orchid river]

🤭

[strange plinth]

Please don't give them ideas

[broken needle]

Discord still doesn't release their apks publicly though

[meager coral]

I have caution and adblokers are advised

[marble sierra]

apkmirror exists and is as successful as it is because it vets and verifies the apks it hosts, multiple social media companies have official pages that they themselves use to upload official apks to apkmirror, you can get official facebook/IG/etc apks from apkmirror uploaded by the respective companies

[polar night]

if I have to experience chaos, then it shall be true chaos

[broken needle]

Discord doesn't do that though

[strange plinth]

;-; cryptocord noooooo

[orchid river]

Well external sources can upload Discord APKs

[marble sierra]

kind of irrelevant

doesnt matter who uploads it as long as its verified and vetted

[tulip gale]

Hi everyone

[novel prawn]

Where can I submit a STRONG feedback against the new discord? It's sooooo AWFUL

[strange plinth]

Hi

[chilly saffron]

Hello

[polar night]

https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/community/topics/360000786192-Mobile

[orchid river]

You can defend discord all you want, but the update is strongly opposed.

[polar night]

remember to upvote existing

[dry cave]

Someone pls just give me a damned old version apk which you guys using also pls give the one up to dated before this one

[chilly saffron]

beathan say you don't have any reason to dislike it. 😄

[broken needle]

That's a bad idea, personally

[meager coral]

I don't want the old version back I just want a swipe right instead of the top bar in servers

[marble sierra]

it would probably be against server rules to upload it here, you can find it on apkmirror in like 2 seconds, but what i was trying to say before is im not actually sure that the UI is tied to the app version

im pretty sure some people got the UI update without actually updating via playstore/appstore

[devout pine]

They been getting feedback for atleast an year saying no one wants that, I doubt anyone reads it

[broken needle]

One of the big reasons to keep your app up to date is for security reasons. On older versions you could be vulnerable to exploits that have already been patched

[orchid river]

I’m using 207.0 from October and still have old UI

[chilly saffron]

leave an app review, and also in settings under appearance, there is a feedback button for the new layout. It probably doesn't get read though, let's be honest.

[verbal dragon]

they gave me the update and i havent updated discord in a while

[undone monolith]

They go through the top-voted suggestions.

[orchid river]

(for some reason the UI update just never appeared for me)

[marble sierra]

yeah, im pretty sure the discord app has a system for in-app updates that dont have anything to do with the respective store you d/l'ed it from

[dry cave]

Apkmirror is safe right ?

[broken needle]

I don't believe it is. I'm pretty sure it's and OTA update. Actually I can check that

[marble sierra]

yes, so long as the apk you're downloading is marked as verified

[verbal dragon]

ahh man.. i really dont like the update tbh lol

[meager coral]

Fairly sora

[dry cave]

Share link in dms ?

[polar night]

I think it's worth downvoting the already completed ones at the top to move them back a page and increase visibility

[marble sierra]

im at work and apkmirror is blocked on my work internet

also i dont have the apk to directly upload to you anyway, im on the newest version

[dry cave]

Oh

[broken needle]

I can tell you if it's an OTA update in a minute lol

[undone monolith]

They go through suggestions that are new, obviously not old ones

[marble sierra]

i dont actually know if it is, i just know i switched from iOS to android recently and when i downloaded discord on my pixel I had the UI update

[foggy isle]

Dnt abandon us, lets experience & get through ths togethr lol.
Jk

[marble sierra]

not sure if my iphone has the new or old UI i guess that would be a quick answer to the question

but other people said it was an OTA update i just assumed they were telling the truth

[dry cave]

Bro I will die while using this new ui and on top of it I am supposed to hold big Christmas event in a 5k server I will never manage to do it with this shi

[gloomy valve]

hi

[opaque crater]

I could look into a safe and stable apk if ya want but id only get to it in a couple of hours lmao

[broken needle]

Well I’m on a build from about 3 months ago and I have the old layout. Neat. Yeah no the new one is basically the exact same minus a few things

And I’m staring at it right now, yes it is

[chilly saffron]

if your eyes aren't vomiting, you don't have the new one.

[broken needle]

I like the newer one

[midnight goblet]

I'm gonna murder the epic ceo if Lego Fortnite isn't out rn

[dry cave]

.....

[marble sierra]

I never update apps unless they prompt me in order to continue using them so I still had an old UI that pretty much looked like desktop, a little while ago people were talking about some UI change and I had no idea what they were talking about, so im not sure what I actually have

[broken needle]

(Minus some visual things, but I already made that clear)

[chilly saffron]

you probably like brussel sprouts too.

[dry cave]

Out of topic

[polar night]

accurate description

[broken needle]

I would delete that. Not something to joke about

[robust iris]

hi everyone?

[marble sierra]

roasted brussels sprouts with garlic and bacon are great

[polar night]

Tim is not the person to contact for that lol

[robust iris]

do you guys have life regrets at all?

[broken needle]

Brussel sprouts do be pog

[broken needle]

Nah

[chilly saffron]

letting my discord update this morning

[strange plinth]

Hello! NEVER!

[strange plinth]

and that

[polar night]

Only about a few things I can't change, but still grew from so my feelings on it are mixed

[opaque crater]

The new discord ui was the right answer....

[marble sierra]

I regret every time I've sinned, but thats just part of the religion

[twilit nexus]

Am I the only one who didn’t get the update?

[broken needle]

Why live life with regrets? I prefer to keep moving forward instead of focusing on the past

[meager coral]

If you don't have auto updates what is wrong with you (from a security standpoint)

[strange plinth]

(I'm a little dumb okay cut me some slack?)

[broken needle]

No. It will roll out to you eventually

[undone monolith]

It's on a rollout apparently.

[twilit nexus]

Ahaa

[marble sierra]

well I think the current mobile UI update is a very good example of why I never use auto updates

[opaque crater]

Slow but not dumb since you agree

[chilly saffron]

you're the chosen one

[strange plinth]

tomato tomato

[void beacon]

Hi guys, whats going on

[twilit nexus]

Not for long brotha 🥲🙏

[robust iris]

damm pretty relatable what religion are u might i ask?

[marble sierra]

I'm a Quaker

[opaque crater]

Tomato tomato your now a potato

[meager coral]

Sure but you never get bug fixes s or security updates either

[robust iris]

the new layout on mobile sucks, i cant even see a list of server members

[strange plinth]

"Now?"

Always

[broken needle]

Tap the channel banner

[chilly saffron]

Don't be hard on yourself. You're not dumb. the new UI is probably just rotting your brain

[marble sierra]

I generally dont run into bugs when using mobile apps, and I have yet to be exposed to a security lapse as I use 2FA on everything

[meager coral]

Without the member list yep your doomed

[polar night]

can we sue to get our braincells back?

[marble sierra]

but like I said I don't download enough things on my phone to be very worried about mobile security

[strange plinth]

aw you guys ;-;

[opaque crater]

Yh now (at least after that joke😂😂)

[undone monolith]

You'll run into a couple every once in a while with Discord.

[marble sierra]

the only things I do on my phone are scroll reddit, use discord (not anymore), play clash royale and play pokemon tcg

[chilly saffron]

You have to tap up at the top to open a new page for it now. Swiping was too easy and made too much sense they said.

[strange plinth]

class action lawsuit, we all share the braincells from the settlement

[robust iris]

so inconvenient

[polar night]

I'm almost okay with this actually

[robust iris]

ahahaha yeah far too easy

[marble sierra]

I think I just don't use it enough tbh

[plucky locust]

i wonder how many people it'll take before they roll this show back

[strange plinth]

yeah, looking forward to having more lol

[undone monolith]

All of them sadly.

[polar night]

🤣

[dry cave]

Obviously I am already ded I might as well ask for refunds for 100 dollars worth nitros for that event I bought

[undone monolith]

Also why is the bar black in the new alpha update, that's mad weird

[foggy isle]

Dang, last time i played clash royale is 2018? Its stll actve now?

[plucky locust]

hey there Jared

[marble sierra]

they're already telling people on twitter that there are no plans to revert and to deal with it, so itll be a lot of days.

[opaque crater]

Id be down

[plucky locust]

it's Zill from Twitter 😂

[polar night]

Ah nice! Welcome 😄

[chilly saffron]

If someone said you only don't like the new update because it's different, and not because it changed anything in a way you actually dislike. How true would you say that is? 😄 Asking for no reason at all. Nobody has said that.

[meager coral]

You never open maps you have all the location stuff disabled you have it set so it doesn't store activity logs sure nothing there but i debut its set up that way

[marble sierra]

I'm in lower arenas because I just started, but they populate lower arenas with bots. They're fairly decent, but you can tell they're bots if you're paying attention. The upper arenas are still active, though.

I'd say I get a real player in arena 3 once every four games

[plucky locust]

whatever you do folks don't try to uninstall and reinstall

[marble sierra]

I'm having a hard time understanding your grammar.

[plucky locust]

it literally broke the app on my phone

[foggy isle]

I used to rlly enjoy tht game. Was addcted ranking up

[worn needle]

where to complain about discord mobile app

[strange plinth]

Good night all! Keep fighting the good fight!

[robust iris]

interesting never heard of that

[chilly saffron]

I blame the new update

[marble sierra]

they dont care, but you can do so on the discord forums, or the feedback zone

[chilly saffron]

Goodnight!

[marble sierra]

or just complain here like everyone else

[plucky locust]

logic concludes this is the most likely case

[opaque crater]

Shouldnt be that late the debate hasnt ended🤣🤣🤣(gn)

[meager coral]

Yea sorry basically the Pont was there is almost certainly more on your phone than you think

[marble sierra]

its a denomination of Christianity

[robust iris]

oh damm im same sort of im catholic

[marble sierra]

sure, but maps isnt exposing me to security risks, and you're taking me a bit literal. my stock apps are still on auto-update.

[plucky locust]

anyways i gotta be up and semi sane in five hours so.... Wish me luck 😂 i hope my Autistic rage somehow doesn't carry over until morning about the issue at hand.

[chilly saffron]

What do you mean they're on the oatmeal tub!

[marble sierra]

https://tenor.com/view/quaker-oats-gif-18685243

ah, no embeds here

[robust iris]

outmeal tub?

[marble sierra]

quaker oats

[chilly saffron]

Quaker Oats lol

[plucky locust]

Quaker oats are the legit best.

[robust iris]

i don't understand lol

[polar night]

I can guarantee mine can but im hoping ill be able to relax on threads tomorrow before i start painting to distill the rage, i have a joyful piece im working on and its hard to paint joy with this nonsense happening

[polar night]

Best of luck on work tho 😅

[marble sierra]

sorry, Quaker Oats is a brand of oatmeal and other stuff in the US, if you arent from the US you probably havent heard of them

they get their name from the Quaker religious movement that I consider myself a part of

[plucky locust]

May you have an easy painting day!

[chilly saffron]

Man I'm not gonna lie, I'm wasting a lot of time making fun of the new UI here when I could be doing other things. You guys just get me though, ya know?

[plucky locust]

And thank you

[marble sierra]

I'm just passing time until my shift is over

[meager coral]

It's manly an issue you might not expect some random app might have some undiscovered remote code execution explot and then your entire phone is compromised

[robust iris]

yea im no from the us

[opaque crater]

Ima go sleep its 2am and discord clearly didnt take my emails kindly lol

[polar night]

I was supposed to go shopping, finish cleaning the house and get my car inspected today but this completely derailed all of that

[marble sierra]

sure, but its not something I'm concerned with. I willingly trade the convenience of not having auto updates on with the small risk something bad might happen

I dont really care that something bad might happen, the things that could be gotten from my phone are very minimal, and anything important is locked with biometrics and 2FA

[plucky locust]

Well it's because we empathize with the situation since we're all going through it. Such a horrid thing they pushed on us 😕

[meager coral]

That's your prerogative then

[chilly saffron]

I hope discord sees that they're affecting peoples' real lives with how bad this udpate is.

Sue them for the cost of a house cleaner

[marble sierra]

They don't care.

[robust iris]

100% untrue, i like change, just not changes for something less efficient

[marble sierra]

I'm pretty sure the mobile web UI is still the old UI, just use that

[chilly saffron]

Hey on the bright side. This horrible update did one good thing. It brought us all together to trauma bond as a community 😄

[meager coral]

I still have my doubts that the things that could be gotten from your phone are verry minimal

No

[chilly saffron]

I'm with you! Some hypothetical person who said that would be totally wrong!

[robust iris]

no we are talking about it

[marble sierra]

As you said, it is my prerogative. I don't wish to have the conversation anymore.

[robust iris]

[chilly saffron]

no we've been raging about it in here all day

[meager coral]

It has its advantages and it's disadvantages

[chrome moss]

It says this update is faster but it’s laggier than the old stuff

[chilly saffron]

yeah well

[polar night]

Wait til you try to have more than a couple convos simultaneously between dm and server, then its awful

[chilly saffron]

It's like when bands always say their new album will be their best

[robust iris]

haha

[meager coral]

That might be sooner than you think I give that 20 to 50 years

[polar night]

That's my hope, reading a ton of the feedback on the support pages this is hitting people with disabilities and neurodivergents really hard and there is little to no recourse for it

[meager coral]

We have ai text Gen ai video Gen and audio I wouldn't be surprised if it was less than 5 the problem is the compute for a web browser

[chilly saffron]

Good thing they didn't make it optional to get feedback from the wider community before deciding to force it on everyone! It would have been a shame if they avoided causing those kinds of problems.

[meager coral]

And the traing data

[polar night]

I had a post i made on generated art/content, basically:

"AI is a tool. AI Artists seem to struggle with the concept of Art. AI's create content, not art. Tools have limitations. Art does not. AI can create content, but it is then up to the Artist to turn that into art. If the art stops at the generation it remains only content. By definition art is the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination. If you want to show content, generate the image. If you want to show the art, show me your prompt. A 'piece' of art is only the result."

[meager coral]

Yea 4 4090s requred

Oh read Nvidia ai game characters

[polar night]

A travesty, truly

[meager coral]

*Look up

[chilly saffron]

This UI is a travesty tbh.

[meager coral]

Yea

But you can talk with it

Uhh I think so but it's not integrated into any titles so glhf

Verbal speech is also being considered as well as you voicing your own video game characters

I think today

[polar night]

Been in testing awhile, likely by some catatonic individuals

[devout pine]

It’s been a thing for like an year, just now you can’t change back

[chilly saffron]

It was a beta test thing until now, so the vast majority of people never saw it to give feedback until they decided to force it.

[meager coral]

Servers can go In folders

[polar night]

It's similar to messenger and Guilded/Matrix now

[smoky musk]

hellow everyone!

[meager coral]

Uhh okay now I'm curious enough to want you to dm me a picture

[chilly saffron]

hi beesmas

[novel prawn]

https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/19631869761303-Global-down-vote-for-new-Discord-UI-

[restive zephyr]

I redownloaded an old version through Android apk. I'm using the old discord and disabled auto update on Google apps. I will never let discord update ever again.

I'm just happy I got the old UI back.

[meager coral]

Uhh could it be scaling

[naive galleon]

wth i cant see online people anymore

[polar night]

Gratz! I'm jealous atm lol

[meager coral]

Verry interesting oh advanced launchpad perhaps

Top bar people

[naive galleon]

what did they do 😭what is this pos

[meager coral]

It should list there but it's buged

Nope top bar members

[naive galleon]

Bruh

[meager coral]

And it's working for me now

Yea

That's a server choice though

[restive zephyr]

I wonder if a nitro boycott would happen and force discord to roll back their update. But I don't think there's enough people Malding right now.

[naive galleon]

So they add that when trying to check online people you answer to a message, i didnt expect this from you discord, you fell down to the mainstream media

[meager coral]

He he

[polar night]

they've lost $200/yr from me already

[meager coral]

I made it in gimp

[chilly saffron]

They put it in the most logical and streamlined, convenient place. Its own new page you have to tap at the top of the screen to see.

[restive zephyr]

I also cancelled mine.

[naive galleon]

I aint buying nitro anymore im not paying to a mainstream media-wanna be

[meager coral]

Why would it be

[naive galleon]

Most logical for what, instagram users? Hell no

[chilly saffron]

For nobody. I was being sarcastic

[novel prawn]

Cancelled my nitro too

[naive galleon]

Rip discord 7/12/2023

[meager coral]

Employees actually have a tag system wide on there work accounts

[chilly saffron]

Name checks out. They're just Ni now. They dropped the "tro"

[naive galleon]

real

[chilly saffron]

wait what?

nitro is the n word?

[devout pine]

[polar night]

like the knights who say Ni?

[meager coral]

That checks out

[naive galleon]

I thought it was "no" when I first entered an american server lmao

[errant prawn]

when will the update be rolled back because the application cannot be used

[naive galleon]

The real question

[thorn pawn]

Late 2025 :>

[meager coral]

Love how quickly the subject changed after you joined

What better than gta6 noo

[errant prawn]

they broke discord

[polar night]

and are on the path to making it culturally bland and irrelevant

[chilly saffron]

Either soon because everyone who is honest hates it (if you say you don't hate it, you're just lying, clearly), or they'll be stubborn and not go back.

[naive galleon]

Whats the next they will add? Followers?

[proper gust]

Don't Give Them Ideas 😭

[errant prawn]

you talk well

[naive galleon]

At the end teamspeak3 will be the best gaming option again bruh

[polar night]

I really don't want them to add anything else, I am happy paying for Nitro with the old update, more storage, emojis, and boosts. That's all I need to pay $200+/year for this app and keep in touch w/ friends. But ruin the UX and it loses it's value

[chilly saffron]

Then rename the app Y

[polar night]

Thanks!

[foggy gull]

Any moderate online??

[polar night]

That's what Twitter/X is trying to do and we can see how that's turning out for musky-boi

[chilly saffron]

Look at shakespeare over here. 😄

[meager coral]

Exits dramatically (also discord is the closest I have to social media)

[polar night]

They added video and are working on the thread stuff, esp since they have to compete with threads now. They're adding payments and stuff as well. I don't like the twitter updates at all, imo app is ruined but it's still a town hall. All my YT friends completely abandoned it

[foggy gull]

@lime patrol I have to report something pls reply

[fallow tendon]

hi

[naive galleon]

[The toy story meme] (discord) I dont want to play with you anymore

[devout pine]

Who has to compete with threads? I thought it failed and everyone stopped after the first week

[chilly saffron]

Fresh report drama

[meager coral]

Okay one more thing if you want you can send a dm and open that chat

[chilly saffron]

Sounds like some elon propaganda

[polar night]

They actually listened, added a follow only feed and have been making slow but good updates. It's keyword instead of hashtag based, so you can say 'dear algorithm, give me ___' and your feed will be what you want. I hated it initially but post-updates now it's fantastic for art subcommunities, excellent creative energy with good engagement

[devout pine]

[polar night]

The algo is a big contributor as well, and the updates they've slowly stripped away over the years. There's a browser app called UnHook that can route to subscriptions and personalize the UI, makes YT way better imo

[devout pine]

Maybe I could try checking it out one day

[lime patrol]

https://dis.gd/howtoreport

[devout pine]

But haven’t heard any one mention it since launch so not to hopeful it’s gonna be as good as Twitter pre-Elon

[polar night]

🦗

[devout pine]

Everyone is scared Elon might be watching and ready to buy out discord to ban us all

[chilly saffron]

bruh just got slapped. I seent it

[polar night]

if the update isn't reverted then I wouldn't care/mind much. I abandoned actively using twitter, can do the same for dc if he tried to make it 'better'

it is fun to jump on and see what the nerdfighters are up to tho

[somber mantle]

what's up with those weird new icons

[haughty aspen]

Heyy

[somber mantle]

they are like TOO cartoony

[chilly saffron]

howdy

[somber mantle]

👋

[haughty aspen]

hii

[lime patrol]

The new icons don't stop you from using Discord like you do on a daily basis. You have the right to dislike the change, but it won't change much to the actual situation unfortunately. And for other request: https://dis.gd/feedback

[polar night]

I send feedback with my wallet and that's already done, so we'll see what Tencent says when they see the cancellation ratios

[chilly saffron]

I just hope the cancellation numbers are significant so they care.

[polar night]

icon-wise, is it possible to just swap ui icon packs via addons? Android added themable icons for it's native UI awhile back, wouldn't hurt to have like $3.99 icon packs for the whole UI. They're stored locally so a local setting can set preferences from a bigger set

[tulip gale]

Hi

Fellas

How are y'all

[polar night]

distressed

[haughty aspen]

How to see member?

[chilly saffron]

never been worse sukiko

[azure trail]

you have to hit channel title at top it’s so cringe

[chilly saffron]

you?

[autumn garden]

pretty good. Slow morning at work today
how about you?

[tulip gale]

Oh no..things will be better

[polar night]

If the UI is reverted, then they will be

[tulip gale]

I am alright

[tulip gale]

Kinda of bored nico

[tulip gale]

I hope things get better in you life

[grave nymph]

There’s no snowgiving this year??

[meager coral]

What happend to this user?(the one I'm replying to here)

[autumn garden]

nope

[chilly saffron]

me cringing when I have to tap that to see the list 🫵 😖

[fallow tendon]

waiting for ror2:sots dlc day 30

[grave nymph]

Why ?

[robust iris]

The situation is that everyone hates the update and it should be reverted

[chilly saffron]

I hope so too. We'll see if this update gets rolled back 😄

[autumn garden]

I don't think they gave an official reason

[safe topaz]

I haven't logged into discord for one day, what happened to the icons on my PC?

[polar night]

This. I'm not going to stop talking about this in all of the communities I'm in until everyone collectively decides on another app or it gets reverted

[echo ferry]

so mobile app huh

[lime patrol]

Everyone hates all the visual updates, but...won't change anything

[polar night]

That's not helpful then

and a really bad image for the company

[robust iris]

I canceled nitro. I've never canceled nitro over a visual update

Revert the change.

[echo ferry]

new mobile UI update is L fr

[chilly saffron]

It's sad when user feedback doesn't matter.

[proper gust]

Won't Change Anything So We'll All Leave & They Won't Get Money

Btw, Fellow UI Haters, Check My Abt Me 💖

[lime patrol]

Moderators don't work at Discord, and this place isn't for feedback, so feel free to send your opinions on https://dis.gd/feedback

[autumn garden]

new icon pack

[fallow tendon]

i have lost in new mobile ui

[polar night]

Not listening to users is how you become myspace

[robust iris]

I submitted feedback there too

[echo ferry]

the worst part is they ask for feedback and then dont listen xd

[polar night]

[chilly saffron]

fr fr ong

[lime patrol]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[robust iris]

Discord gonna bury their head in the sand

[grave nymph]

I’m waiting it all the year 😢

[polar night]

I send feedback now every time I accidentally open the mobile app now, so it will be hundreds of emails over the next couple weeks

[safe topaz]

is there a way to get the old icons back?

[robust iris]

Only gonna make their community super mad what's the big deal

[proper gust]

Especially With All The Disabled Communities On Here

They Ain't Gonna Have A User Base For Much Longer

[lime patrol]

People always say that they won't survive to their visual changes, and after some weeks, everyone will have moved on. So...just waiting for the wave to pass, like previous ones.

[autumn garden]

Not any way that doesn't break ToS

[chilly saffron]

It's okay, we don't blame you ❤️ Unless you're secretly responsible and just here undercover.... 😒

[polar night]

I am neurodivergent, so that is now how this works.

[proper gust]

^

[lime patrol]

This is exactly how it works unfortunately.

[polar night]

^^ Yeah I have no hate towards community mods, not responsible for this

[robust iris]

I've never seen this much backlash to anything discord has put out before. That response is blind

[polar night]

We'll see.

[devout pine]

So you going the Eric cartman route?

[lime patrol]

You have missed a lot then.

[autumn garden]

Yeah kinda sad, maybe we'll get a reason later on

[devout pine]

[echo ferry]

this is true but its jarring to drop such an extensive UI change all of a sudden

[proper gust]

We Love The Community Mods/p Just Not The Actual Discord Company

[polar night]

I have worked Support for over a decade. I know how to be expensive and annoying to get stuff done.

[lime patrol]

They have changed the font, they have changed their graphic chart and EVERY TIMES people have complained like this

[safe topaz]

I don’t understand this update with icons only for phones or for PCs too?

[lime patrol]

And yet..people have forgotten

[ocean crag]

this chat still talkin bout the ui?

[lime patrol]

Just like they will in some weeks

[polar night]

I don't have any major problems with the icons. The layout and UX however, not the same.

[echo ferry]

time to get an older version of discord on my phone 😭

[ocean crag]

also hi @lime patrol

[autumn garden]

Desktop app got new icons. Mobile app got a fully redesigned UI
other stuff (like nitro booster badges) got redesigned too

some changes are still rolling out though

[robust iris]

The UI doesn't work

[proper gust]

Don't Fix What Isn't Broken 🤷🏻

[lime patrol]

And you haven't seen the original new UI. I don't like it either.

[robust iris]

I don't actually have any problems with it visually

[lime patrol]

But..it is what it is

[polar night]

I dont accept that

[safe topaz]

I'm understood, thank you

[chilly saffron]

It is what it is. And it isn't what it should be. 😦

[polar night]

a 'shut up and take it' response is a bad image

[robust iris]

Thats silly. It isn't what it is it should be changed

[lime patrol]

Oh, you're free to dislike, just saying that it won't change much unfortunately, ahaha

[polar night]

It's considerably more than dislike unfortunately

[proper gust]

It's Different From Disliking, It's Causing Disabled Users To Be Incapable Of Using It Without Difficulty/info

[polar night]

^^^^

[robust iris]

And it's incredibly unfriendly to new people

[polar night]

icons and username I can deal with, not UX failures

[chilly saffron]

True. I heard it called a new person a nerd earlier. Very unfriendly

[kind shoal]

Still no Playing Status for mobile?

[robust iris]

It straight up doesn't work half the time, that isn't simple disliking

[worthy mantle]

Guys what happens if u get ban in the town hall

[polar night]

I've seen a number of new bugs from the thousands of comments on twitter

[lime patrol]

Just don't get banned?

[polar night]

although some of those are just caching related

[worthy mantle]

No like your account get bans?

[lime patrol]

No

[chilly saffron]

You could find out the answer very easily 😂

[hollow umbra]

censorship it seems

Any updates on having this fixed?

I can’t take this anymore man, it’s disgusting

And Check Out My Abt Me For The Petition 💖

[chilly saffron]

or they put a lot of thought into it, but their goal is to create drama and outrage

[mild umbra]

Oi.

[chilly saffron]

I just saw your petition on the feedback forums haha

[proper gust]

💪🏻💪🏻

[robust iris]

Hello

[mortal swift]

“Oh yeah we removed the option because we didn’t wanna manage 2 UI’s” but they were already managing 2 UI’s with the beta for this (which was not at all well received) and the PC UI

There’s literally no point in this existing

[fervent forum]

shii beggar left the chat

[polar night]

Discord is generally my primary means of communication so with this update I have practically no use for my phone anymore

[mortal swift]

Agreed

It’s to a point where everyone in my family, including my grandparents, has gotten used to using it to talk with me

I cant explain a new UI to any of them when I don’t even understand it myself, this change was the stupidest thing they’ve done it years

I don’t like the name change, but it’s not the worst, sure there’s less character with peoples accounts but it wasn’t the end of the world

[polar night]

I enjoy it for some of the communities I'm in, but after getting into Threads that's a fairly good supplement so if leadership doesn't put their head on straight then if I'm going to adapt to something it'll be something else, as the development trend is bad

[zealous breach]

hi guys

[chilly saffron]

They're just trying to bring the community together so that we can all bond over how horrendous this UI is.

[wooden tendon]

guh

[polar night]

[zealous breach]

still talking bout the ui

[polar night]

will never stop

[mortal swift]

Yeah

[chilly saffron]

Wow lucky, got to keep your protest name

[mortal swift]

Won’t stop till it’s fixed or I can mod discord

[chilly saffron]

mine got censored

[mortal swift]

I can’t even change my server name

[chilly saffron]

I can't either. I had to change my actual discord name haha

[mortal swift]

I pay for nitro (won’t be doing that this month) to be able to do that; and yet I still can’t

[chilly saffron]

some servers don't allow people to change their own nicknames

unfortunately

[polar night]

I won't for long

[zealous breach]

i wish i didnt

[polar night]

but, mobile web is a stand-in if needed

I can write a shortcut that will bring up the page in desktop mode automatically

[mild umbra]

i didn’t update the app but i pressed new layout thinking i could turn it back to the old one like before 💔

[polar night]

oh noooo

[chilly saffron]

rip

[zealous breach]

f

[polar night]

curiosity literally killed the cat

[chilly saffron]

they're rolling it out, so not everyone will have it all at once.

[zealous breach]

imma go sleep now 👋 see ya tmr

[polar night]

I think they would've gotten more valuable feedback if the toggle option required you to submit feedback

[chilly saffron]

seems like a good way to prolong the backlash, since new people will have it forced on them over time and start seeing how bad it is lol.

sleep well gude

[polar night]

deployments are typically done in batches, it does prolong stuff but if there were broken updates it lets them be addressed more effectively

for a huge community like disc itll take awhile to push tho. Night Gude!

[chilly saffron]

it's already broken by design though. got em!

[polar night]

pretty much lol. With the new bugs I've been seeing reading thru all the twitter threads and replies though it doesn't seem like that helped

I am clearly getting tired as that made little sense; tldr lots of ui bugs still on top of the bad ux changes

e.g. text showing up in the box after submittance

[mortal swift]

Updates:
Got an announcement from my teacher that we will no longer be using discord, so that’s fun
I read through the Twitter feed and some of the AppStore feedback and 90% of it is negative
And my discord has crashed every time I open it for the last few minutes

[polar night]

noice, I've seen rec's to try matrix, guilded or IRC from discussions going on elsewhere

does the teacher know what'll be the stand-in after?

[mortal swift]

Not yet, he more or less just said that he didn’t like the UI and wanted to stop using it unless it was fixed

[chilly saffron]

I gotta say, it's pretty funny to me that the update was so bad your teacher said you guys aren't using it anymore 😄

[mortal swift]

The man is 53 and has been working in tech for years, if he says something is bad he’s the first person I’m listening to

[polar night]

I mean it's exactly what's happening with YouTube in schools, they screwed up search and teachers can't find relevant content anymore and they're moving to other things instead, same will happen here if leadership doesn't fix their vision

in a way this happening across all the big apps seems like the internet's dying

becoming to algorithmically controlled and mundane, devoid of the human experiences that make us happy

[mortal swift]

I think it’s more that the internet is reverting, we’re moving back to old and small platforms because they actually care about us and have life to them

The big companies that we thought cared are now just money hungry and lifeless

[hollow umbra]

NO COME BACK RN OR I'LL TAKE YOUR CATS

[mortal swift]

For a while, I’d genuinely get excited when I had to update discord; and now it’s just like every other platform, you keep it on the oldest version you can till you can’t.

[polar night]

that feels about right; I think we see a similar pattern in evolution, e.g. from paleontological studies, when dinos were around typically there were the huge ones and tiny ones, not a lot in the middle. That's b.c. the bigger ones ate the medium-sized ones which were still growing up

We see a similar thing happening with companies, up until the point the companies start to collapse and then the small stuff becomes medium sized, if larger stuff becomes regulated or collapses then diversity will increase.

A bit philisophical I guess, but the patterns in general are similar

[mortal swift]

God I hate this stupid ass swipe to reply

[mortal swift]

It’s like divergent evolution but with corporations…divergent capitalism.

[robust iris]

hi

[hollow umbra]

hi

[polar night]

Yup, there seem to be a lot of similar patterns in nature, society even with how groups are formed, or stuff like the rat society experiment. When something becomes too dense/big, it spirals towards self-destructive decisions at a system level. I'd almost argue that scales up to black holes, but I don't have data to back that lol

but at scale: groups of friends, neighborhoods, societies, countries, businesses, etc, its the same social pattern across the board

[mortal swift]

Yeah

They make bad decisions because they think they’re big enough to survive

Even if they aren’t

More or less, I’m still half asleep lmao

[polar night]

yup. somewhat of a personification of 'too much of a good thing' in a way, or 'all good things come to an end'

I'm about to be half to sleep, this update has had me hyperfocused and stressed since 6pm, it's 5am now

[loud dagger]

Currently 22F (-6C) here

[mortal swift]

I understand that they need more users and they need more money to keep everything running; but this was the worst possible way to attract new users, even if they are coming from other platforms

[hollow umbra]

sorry i use kelvin

[mortal swift]

Bro go to sleep

[polar night]

if I could turn my brain off I would

[loud dagger]

Wish it would snow more. It did snow yesterday morning

It’s only December soo

[fallow ivy]

new memeber icon still not on mobile

[mortal swift]

Fair enough, if I could turn my brain off I wouldn’t have woken my poor old grandmother to me screaming slurs at 5am lmao

[abstract dome]

22 celsius here

[loud dagger]

I think I got about a dusting of snow

Looked really pretty though. Especially in the playground

[autumn garden]

It's 1ºC here, after 2 weeks of snow

[polar night]

xD lol aww, I'll count myself lucky to only be with 3 cats then and they couldn't be bothered if I'm awake

[abstract dome]

are you from russia?

[loud dagger]

I was born in Russia yes. Well more like Europe/Russia

[abstract dome]

cool

[mortal swift]

Lucky lol, I’m stuck for now and it’s awful

[proper gust]

Man, I'm In Canada & We Barely Have Snow Due To El Niño 💔

[polar night]

If it's any consolation I'm in TX for now, would much rather be in the PNW. Hopefully you're able to get un-stuck in the nearish future :3

[abstract dome]

i wish i could see snow in my life

i can actually travel to see it

my country will never have snow

[mortal swift]

Ohio moment

[abstract dome]

what?

[polar night]

It's worth it if you get the chance. I got to see it proper when I was like ~15 or so by traveling to new mexico, it's an experience the first time

[chilly saffron]

You know what's even worse than that?

[abstract dome]

what?

[chilly saffron]

This new UI

[mortal swift]

Kinda wish I could say this and have people realize I’m saying I’m from Ohio and not remember that stupid ass meme

[polar night]

I knew this was coming lol

[chilly saffron]

lmao

[abstract dome]

oh lol

[mortal swift]

Real

[chilly saffron]

not gonna lie, I made myself laugh that time

[hallow iron]

still cant change new layout to old?

[chilly saffron]

nope

[mortal swift]

The “we didn’t wanna maintain 2 UI’s” argument is even worse considering they didn’t change the desktop UI, so they’re STILL maintaining 2 completely different UI’s

[polar night]

I think someone mentioned only maintaining 1 framework, which even if so it's possible to keep the same UI so the argument really falls flat lol

[abstract dome]

um sorry guys but this is the first time i opened discord for a week now . soo what is that ui

[polar night]

have you got the new update yet ?

[robust iris]

New UI is so Suck

[abstract dome]

yes

i updated

but i am on pc

[chilly saffron]

It's a new mobile UI that is being rolled out. You'll only have it on mobile, and you may not have it for you yet

replied to the wrong person

[abstract dome]

oh

[polar night]

orly now

[chilly saffron]

haha

[polar night]

couldnt help it lol

[chilly saffron]

yeah idk if you've seen it yet Jared 😄

[polar night]

oh heavens no, certainly not 😉

[robust iris]

You cannot see the status of a person online or not outside the chat in the new update 👎👎👎👎👎

[polar night]

lack of information density is a key reason I hate it

[robust iris]

Controlling the program has become difficult

[polar night]

that seems to be the consensus, but they think it's better for us

if you get a moment, can you submit feedback here? https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/community/topics/360000786192-Mobile

[chilly saffron]

If discord were running the world, it would be one of those dystopian movies

[proper gust]

Frr. My Lover (He/They/Neos) Was Screensharing With Me As His Had Updated & Not Mine. Not Only Was It Horribly Glitchy, I Also Couldn't Hear It Because They Were Muffled Despite Our Best Attempts

Glad The Petition Is Going 35 Strong

Omg Yes

Fanfic Writers, Where You At

[gleaming oak]

the new ui is gonna take a while to get used to

[mild umbra]

NPC

[polar night]

mobile web in desktop mode works the same old way if you don't want to

[robust iris]

5 years ago

Again

[polar night]

if I have to get used to something else it'll be a new app, not discord as they've now established a pattern of bad ux changes

[agile knot]

this ui actually sucks

[chilly saffron]

I did read it like a robot in my head for some reason lmao.

[robust iris]

Nahhh

[mighty jolt]

They also have feedback if you go into appearence settings on mobile

[chilly saffron]

💯

[gleaming oak]

I kinda like the voice channel ui though

[polar night]

yup, but that is blackbox, the feedback site is what's used for features tho and public. That said I submit feedback every time I accidentally open the app now. I've already sent ~18 emails in the past 4 hours

[edgy osprey]

[mighty jolt]

Oof sadly I cant submit feedback there as for some reason I can’t log in?

[polar night]

The feedback site uses Zendesk and not the discord account since it's also the support login, so it needs a separate account

[mighty jolt]

Oh

[polar night]

The zendesk subdomain is https://hammerandchisel.zendesk.com/ if that works better, it redirects to the discord domain

[mighty jolt]

But what about the “agent-sign in” option

[polar night]

That would be for devs or support reps, so you'd just want to use the 'sign up' option by new to discord

[mighty jolt]

Oh

[magic laurel]

hi

[loud dagger]

I guess it’s a bad time for me being Russian due to the Russia vs Ukraine war

[magic laurel]

..

[robust iris]

This new UI is so massively laggy (iPhone 13)

[magic laurel]

I’m not lagging..

[polar night]

Being Russian is fine, your values are what matter tbh. I can't say I'm a fan of what the motherland is doing though in any regards

[magic laurel]

I have an Iphone 14 and i don’t feel a diffrence.. but maybe ur right 😄

[magic laurel]

yeah

[chilly saffron]

They're just trying to help you do other things irl while you wait for things to load

[polar night]

to pull a page out of the Sony playbook, "It's a feature"

[mighty jolt]

Imagine having an iPhone 13 (has an iPhone 7)

[robust iris]

As soon as I get home I’ll sideload a older ipa 💀

[left rune]

truly discord is telling us all to go outside 🙏

[magic laurel]

wow

[robust iris]

I have a X, se1, 12 mini and 13 pro :/

[magic laurel]

that sounds difficult..

[chilly saffron]

I'm gonna have to sideload a bunch if IPA to forget about this new UI

[robust iris]

But I gave the 13 pro to my dad bc it’s too heavy

[magic laurel]

bro spending too muh money

[left rune]

SE 1 as in the mid 2010s one? i miss mine

[robust iris]

Boredism

[left rune]

good lil phone that was

[robust iris]

Yepp 128gb one

[magic laurel]

I had an iphone 7, got an iphone X and today i have an Iphone 14 pro max

I also have the newest apple ipad & airpods pro.. - now my bank accounts empty

Bought the ipad yesterday

[robust iris]

I had all devices with 128 or 256gb, never 64 or sth :/

[magic laurel]

😲

Just click on “notifications”..?

[kind shoal]

does this update now have Playing a Game status

for mobile

[azure root]

heeey everyone!!!!

[lunar lintel]

Not that bad, but there are multiple bugs, like if you want to upload a picture, it would be extremely laggy

What leaderboard?

You mean private messages?

[chilly saffron]

Yep, everyone seems to agree on that.

[nova totem]

hi

[chilly saffron]

howdy

[ancient oxide]

How do I make chrome android open pdfs in the chrome app instead of downloading them to my phone

[signal atlas]

has anyone figured out if they even slightly intend on changing anything about the ui

[ancient oxide]

Bro why is everyone complaining about the new ui I see no difference explain them to me?

That's for discord app help

[robust iris]

@gloomy valve

[gloomy valve]

yes money is honey

[robust iris]

what were they thinking with the new layout 💀

At this point discord is in a competition with reddit who can make the shitties mobile app

[polar night]

nothing good

[ancient oxide]

What is this new layout I don't see any changes

[robust iris]

exactly

[robust iris]

don't update

it's horrible it looks like Facebook messenger but even worst

[ancient oxide]

I'm literally on the latest

[robust iris]

hmmm

how do you not see the update then

[ancient oxide]

Version 206.16

[polar night]

mobile web works the old way, it's a stand-in if you can't revert through previously noted means

[polar night]

it's a staged rollout so not everyone has it yet it seems

[robust iris]

(client mods)

[robust iris]

a/b testing maybe

are client mods against tos?

[ancient oxide]

What version are u on

[robust iris]

I'm using 106 lol

[polar night]

that'd be more the ui toggle, for deployment it's in cohorts usually

b.c. of so many users

[robust iris]

yeah makes sense

[karmic hedge]

[robust iris]

it's the kotlin version

[ancient oxide]

So how am I on 206.16

[ancient oxide]

What?

[robust iris]

well you Updatef

[deft pike]

Hey could anyone sub to me on youtube im trying to be famous👍

[ancient oxide]

You update then?

[robust iris]

remember when discord changed their UI to the iOS looking one

[robust iris]

nah just tested on one other phone

[ancient oxide]

That was toggleable by holding on the sparkle emoji ✨️

[ancient oxide]

So what did I do wrong why have I got different numbers?

[chilly saffron]

The ui update is a mobile update, and it is being rolled out over time. not everyone has it yet.

[analog pasture]

I have

[chilly saffron]

Me too, unfortunately.

[polar night]

similar feels but product managers should probably be the targets. That said, careful w/ words

[chilly saffron]

I was just explaining because crackhead gamer was asking

[analog pasture]

actually i prefer old layout

it was cool and more simple

[chilly saffron]

you and all the rest of us 😄

[polar night]

please share thoughts as vocally as possible on https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/community/topics/360000786192-Mobile and upvote the related threads for the update

[chilly saffron]

probably the discord devs too

[analog pasture]

@chilly saffron if i have new update i am in beta list?

[chilly saffron]

nope it's forced now if you got it

[analog pasture]

rip

[chilly saffron]

no going back

[analog pasture]

😭

[chilly saffron]

F

[polar night]

I have been in a state of rage for nearly ~12 hours now so I feel you

[analog pasture]

Launchpad is bugged

[karmic hedge]

[analog pasture]

I dont understand dev

Why all layout is different but warning popups are not

🤣

[chilly saffron]

It's too bad mods are against TOS. I've never thought about discord layout mods until this horrific update, and now that I've looked there's some really cool stuff. I don't think I'd want to risk it though.

[polar night]

can still rollback apk if you're tricksy enough

[chilly saffron]

idk how risky it is. If several exist it might be very low risk, but I'm too paranoid haha

also the mods I saw were for desktop, idk about mobile

[bleak breach]

I mean, most client mods will never lead to a ban on PC, but I don't even know about mobile client mods.

[bleak breach]

They do exist, but I don't even understand how they work.

[polar night]

mobile would require apk mods b.c. they usually compile down to java/etc, I didn't know there were desktop mods O_o

[bleak breach]

The desktop mods are the most common ones

[polar night]

Makes sense tho if its still built on electron, it's just node on chrome webkit stuffs

[chilly saffron]

they look really cool 😦

[bleak breach]

Yeah, it's very easy to modify too lol

[cobalt spear]

Guys

[chilly saffron]

sup

[polar night]

yeah I can do node stuff all day, I might have to fiddle around and see what I can do with the API. If it can pull msgs from diff channels then maybe a little applet for mobile would work as a replacement

[cobalt spear]

Lemie start the third wave of the war, DISCORD UI IS DISGUSTING

[chilly saffron]

More like disGUSTINGcord!

[bleak breach]

I personally don't want any of the risk of using a mobile client mod just because it doesn't seem worth it... I remember hearing one of them stole data.

[bleak breach]

I think it looks nice. They certainly moved stuff around, but it's not that bad.

[dense aurora]

Greetings

[cobalt spear]

Good opinion

[bleak breach]

It takes some getting used to, but not really

[chilly saffron]

I thought you were an acceptable enough person before you said it looks nice

[bleak breach]

Ok that I can't deny

[polar night]

try having 5 simultaneous conversations between diff servers and dms, for any sort of efficiency it's awful

[ancient oxide]

Ah thanks

[cobalt spear]

Mine isn’t buggy at all

[chilly saffron]

❤️

[bleak breach]

It certainly needed more time in the oven, it still had many bugs

[chilly saffron]

it needs a LOT of time in the oven. until the update is turned to ash where it belongs

[bleak breach]

It used to be worse, lol

No as in the new UI

[chilly saffron]

oh it could be a lot worse for sure.

[bleak breach]

The new UI used to be way worse when it was in testing

[eternal ibex]

smh this ui killing my sanity

[polar night]

sameeeee

[eternal ibex]

[polar night]

and it worked well

[bleak breach]

It'll take some getting used to, but it isn't the end of the world.

[eternal ibex]

Exactly and everything was working fine

[polar night]

it was fast too

[eternal ibex]

It's trash bro

[mild umbra]

Fed

[chilly saffron]

lmao

[eternal ibex]

Discord is now 5 times slower and 10 times more chaotic

[polar night]

I loved this ability more than any other messaging app, and it got binned

[chilly saffron]

undercover for sure!

[bleak breach]

Anyway who does that at most I'll have a conversation in a server and DMs at the same time and switching between DMs is easy

[eternal ibex]

They just know that whatever trash updates they throw at us we gon still use it bcs no competition yet

[bleak breach]

I suppose I've had more time to get used to it so I'm more used to it lol

[polar night]

any power user honestly, shifting between parts of the ui quickly is harder/slower now

[ancient oxide]

I don't have the update yet so what's so bad about it idk what it looks like

[eternal ibex]

A lot of ppl do

[bleak breach]

I don't have 5 conversations at once, that feels like it would overload my brain fast lol

[eternal ibex]

I oftentimes talk in 2 diff server and in 3 diff dms

[chilly saffron]

I'll be here waiting for you to be part of the update and you come in with a new wave of peeople hating it 😄

[polar night]

I am AuDHD, and have a few chatty friends sometimes. It's nothing compared to when I was social in MMOs lol

[eternal ibex]

Everything was perfect

[bleak breach]

AUDHD GANG?

[chilly saffron]

until the discord nation attacked

[polar night]

2 jobs ago I was able to maintain 24 simultaneous conversations with a required response time of ~3 minutes per chat; for web dev questions

[eternal ibex]

They changed the old UI functions and then when we got used to it, they threw this bs at us

[ancient oxide]

I might not

[placid hill]

im not sayin yall SHOULD hate it but i dont think ppl who like it get what we mean

[eternal ibex]

Fr

[robust iris]

but like it didnt need to be changed

[bleak breach]

What the hell

[placid hill]

Also the search function was pretty helpful but ive heard its not that good now

[eternal ibex]

They never had the actual discord experience to know what we talking about

[eternal ibex]

It's pretty bad now ngl

[robust iris]

there was no need it was perfect as it was

[chilly saffron]

I don't think people who like it actually like it. I'm convinced they're chat gpt lol

[eternal ibex]

How did this thing even get official

Do they not have any testers?

[polar night]

out of touch product managers

[robust iris]

now its apple headphones for deafen

[eternal ibex]

Barely 1

[full sparrow]

hi

Where to chat Arabs?

[eternal ibex]

Could even get negative

[bleak breach]

If you look at #media somehow I still have the ability to switch between old and new UI

[placid hill]

Cause you got nitro

[eternal ibex]

I don't even think ppl who come up with ideas are even using the app cuz if they did, this bs would have never been an idea

[forest cedar]

Why are they ruining their app? No one wanted this and it’s awful to look at and use. I don’t want another social media app. Discord was perfectly fine the way it was? This makes me so sad, the direction they’re going.

[polar night]

maintaining all threaded convos here across all channels and other apps is not hard, but this update makes me sick to my stomach because of the efficiency losses

[bleak breach]

I doubt that has something to do with it

[placid hill]

no im serious

[bleak breach]

???

[eternal ibex]

@bleak breach mind maybe translating

[placid hill]

like dawg if u look in #media you can see ppl clearly cant switch cause they dont got nitro

[eternal ibex]

Ion know no Chinese

[polar night]

I had nitro earlier today, I canceled but was forced the new update. They're deploying it in waves to diff cohorts

[robust iris]

but like it was GOOD there was no need to change it or anything for that matter

[eternal ibex]

Also btw where's that in settings

[bleak breach]

It's just the button that lets you swap to old ui

[bleak breach]

Appearance but it probably doesn't show for you

[eternal ibex]

Rip

[mild umbra]

@bleak breach what dwvice are you using

[bleak breach]

Seriously???

[eternal ibex]

I got nitro too

[robust iris]

With nitro you can change it back to normal!!! (sarcasm)

[bleak breach]

Android

[eternal ibex]

It's not there

[placid hill]

its not in my phone and i got ios and no nitro

[eternal ibex]

I'm android and nitro

[mild umbra]

android can switch but ios can’t

[placid hill]

oh word?

[pulsar mirage]

How tf do I sort my search by relevance?

[placid hill]

WHATT

thats crazy dawg

[mild umbra]

i don’t think they removed the switching feature for android yet

[polar night]

Nope, I'm on Android, no option to switch anymore

[chilly saffron]

It's not android or nitro

[bleak breach]

I hope not

[placid hill]

its just discord being lame asf

[robust iris]

its so joever people

[chilly saffron]

It's if you've had the change rolled out to you or not yet

[polar night]

like I said, they are deploying to diff user cohorts over time in waves, it will come to everyone eventually

[placid hill]

oh god

[chilly saffron]

What jared said

[robust iris]

0_0

[placid hill]

i hope i dont get discord ui soon

[chilly saffron]

I hope you get it today clowny

[pulsar mirage]

Did their user tests consist of rocks?

[placid hill]

my phone ain update yet so i still got the old

[dry mirage]

Is that a Super Mario RPG remake emote?

[chilly saffron]

we can trauma bond

[bleak breach]

Uhhhhhh

[placid hill]

dont even play😭

Nah i tried the beta version of the update and i hated it soo much. Like i didnt understand a thing

[polar night]

it's a feature!

[meager aurora]

Wait I just realised the server boost badges has been updated too lol...

[bleak breach]

I tried the beta version and I didn't really mind it lol

[chilly saffron]

I gotten over my anger. I'm in apathy mode and now just enjoying watching other people arrive to complain that they got the new UI. It's like hazing

[placid hill]

Ay dawg chill

[polar night]

I am in quiet mode anger with that dangerous smile

[placid hill]

they dont gotta hate it they just gotta understand. And they probably dont but im jus sayin

[robust iris]

🐒

[meager aurora]

Some people actually have the power to change layouts

[eternal ibex]

I'm just saying. This is unwanted and bad

[forest cedar]

^

[meager aurora]

Real

[placid hill]

yeah no i dont even got it yet im scared😭😭 i feel like im in midieval times waiting to be on the guillotine

[robust iris]

they won't change it they definietly know everyone doesnt like it

[eternal ibex]

A poll about it rn or in 2 weeks would have the same result

[signal atlas]

ive only seen 3 people like it

[robust iris]

should of made a poll about changing the ui

[fading lagoon]

Heyy will there be the grey back of before in the theme colour choices?

[eternal ibex]

They know that whatever they do we gon still use discord

[polar night]

add feedback here please: https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/community/topics/360000786192-Mobile

[spring pelican]

i just joined the server just to rant about the new ass discord ui update

[bleak breach]

Wow they made you update their app? Crazy (sarcasm)

[placid hill]

i said before that maybe they might just be doing some stunt or something

[eternal ibex]

There's no damn competition

[bleak breach]

It is in there

[chilly saffron]

we're all just heads in a basket looking up at you tauntint that your time is coming 🤣

[bleak breach]

The new theme is called Midnight

[signal atlas]

idk what they think theyre doing

[fading lagoon]

I mean the exact grey of before not the dark grey blue idk

[eternal ibex]

Dark mode is a lot more dark and blueish

[bleak breach]

Yeah, the new theme is called Midnight

[eternal ibex]

No that's AMOLED

[bleak breach]

The old dark is still in there isn't it??

[chilly saffron]

midnight is black black

[eternal ibex]

Nope. It's now a lot darker and blueish

[chilly saffron]

but dark mod aslo changed in the new update

[signal atlas]

nope

[eternal ibex]

Midnight is what Amoled used to be

[fading lagoon]

Yes

[forest cedar]

I don’t have it yet either, but my friends do and they all hate it. I refuse to update Discord until it’s forced to update. I’m dreading the day it happens.

[fading lagoon]

I hope there will be the grey option 🥺

[meager aurora]

I think they have this new theme color called Rebia?

[static arch]

i heard someone say to turn on developer mode and the new layout button to turn it off is there, is that true for some of u guys bc it didnt work for me

[fading lagoon]

I think it forced to update for me

[bleak breach]

IT ISN'T

[static arch]

uuhgghhh💔

[fading lagoon]

What?? Where?

[static arch]

idk my friend sent me a ss

[meager aurora]

Yea I heard it too but it didn't happen with me

[chilly saffron]

💯

[mild umbra]

No

[mild umbra]

twin

[eternal ibex]

The only solution to bring back the old ui (maybe) is to have everyone who doesn't like the update to stop using discord until they revert it as they would lose 90% of their users yk

[meager aurora]

I dont think that's true I already have developer mode on

[bleak breach]

I could've sworn a few days ago the new dark mode and the old dark mode were seperate
