Back in the day you could use webhooks in order to cheat rate limit. I'm not sure if it still works today. Even if it does, likely it is AGAINST ToS

Hm, I guess there is no point then

#

I saw Dyno had this cool feature where you can choose a different color profile picture for the bot in your server

#

I guess it uses webhooks for that?

#

Or can bots change their own picture per-server?

Webhooks clearly are not meant for that type of usage, but yeah, you can achieve that using webhooks. Though I remember you can change your profile pic based on the server without webhooks

#

You can do it too if I remember right. You need Nitro

Right, you need nitro to do it on a human user

#

I'm trying to find the method to change it per server for your bot

By checking Dyno's profile, you can see if it is a Webhook or a client

#

If it is a client, it has guild related info, roles, etc; if it is a webhook, there's no stuff like roles

I don't actually use Dyno. I just saw it in their release notes

#

But if you could change it without webhooks, it would be on Guild, right?

Sorry, I don't have any knowledge of how to use Discord.js to change pfp

Ok, thanks for the info

I think I'll just stick with regular messages now
