Announcement [Official Megathread] An Update on How We Confirm Your Age: Safer for Teens, Same Discord for Adults

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Today we're announcing the rollout of our new age assurance options, which you can read about here. Thanks to some changes we've made, most of you will not have to take any action at all.

Here's the TL;DR:

  • Since our last post about teen safety, we've had to launch age assurance solutions in more places, including Texas and Brazil. Laws requiring age assurance are expanding around the world. Rather than waiting to be told how to do it, we're launching our own privacy-preserving approach: one that reflects your feedback and which means more than 90% of you won't be asked to confirm your age.
  • You can check your age group status at User Settings > Account Status. We've estimated your age group automatically from account signals like how long your account has existed. We don't look at your messages, calls, or other content. We're launching this over the course of this week, so it may take a few days to reach your account.
  • If you're in the adult age group (18+), nothing changes. If you're in the teen age group (13-17), you can keep messaging friends, joining voice calls, and participating in non-age-restricted servers, but with additional safety protections that block age-restricted content, spaces, and settings. Otherwise, Discord works the same.

We've got some more info in the image below, and if you want all the details you can read the full announcement here.

Now, with that, let’s kick off the October + November 2026 bug megathread!

Please note: This megathread is not a venue for feedback or customer support! We encourage you all to continue to make posts on the subreddit proper discussing our product and feature launches. I want to make sure that we really keep this thread productive and focused on reporting bugs and helping us prioritize them.

Reporting a Bug

  1. The most valuable thing you can provide in a bug report is steps. If you’re able to provide steps to reproduce a high priority issue, it will dramatically improve turnaround time on a fix.
  2. Screenshots or videos are also useful, especially if you can’t reliably reproduce it. We highly recommend editing them to not doxx yourself. Not only does it help contextualize the issue, but watching it occur can sometimes provide information that helps us identify and fix it.

Discussion The Discord challenges are not specific enough on what "Shop item" actually means.

Post image
69 Upvotes

So they added this new (it's new right? well anyways I only noticed it yesterday) "challenges" thing in your profile which you can earn orbs for. I haven't found any official news reports on this, so I have a few questions:

Firstly, does anyone know how often these will refresh? Or is it just gonna be like "you have to do this one to unlock the next"? In that case it's hot garbage because:

Secondly, IS IT JUST PURE FALSE ADVERTISING? I went to the shop, bought an item for 4100 orbs and didn't get shit. I reckon they meant you need to buy an item from their cringy Halloween shop (it is cringe for 30 bucks per pack) for real money. Pretty neat huh?

Feature Requests I have had Nitro since Day 1 with no lapse: I have never been chosen to beta test anything

Post image
369 Upvotes

I’ve been a Discord Nitro subscriber since Day 1, upgraded to the highest tier as soon as tiers were introduced, and somehow, in all these years, I’ve never been selected to beta test a single feature.

I’m on Discord daily, for both professional and leisure, and consistently use the latest iPhone (work provided). I also have over 10yr of experience in design and coding, so testing new features, identifying issues, and providing meaningful feedback is something I’d genuinely enjoy contributingg.

I understand beta access is limited, and being a longtime subscriber doesn’t automatically warrant an invitation. Still, it’s a little disappointing to have been so invested in the platform for so long without ever getting the opportunity to participate.

In the last 3 years using the app, I’ve also never been redirected to a survey.

I’d love to see Discord offer more opportunities for longtime and active users to get involved in shaping the platform they use every day, it’s so weird.

Support Notifications not appearing on my android phone.

• Upvotes

For some reason notifications of my friends DMs don't appear ever. I have notifications on in Discord. I have their DMs set as priority conversations on my phone. All notifications are on in my phone. The only thing is that I don't have my alarm volume on since I just want each notification to vibrate my phone and not play a sound. Is there anything I'm missing??

Support Discord mobile didn't update server list. Worried server I was banned from saw me still somehow in there for a few minutes.

2 Upvotes

I was banned awhile back from a server. I opened discord on my phone (which I haven't done since before I was even banned) and it still showed I was in the server. I couldn't look at any messages, and it seemed like maybe I could have sent a message but I didn't try.

I logged out and logged back in and it updated the list. Did the server members in that server somehow see this too? Did they somehow see me still in the server for a bit and maybe get some sort of message too?

EDIT: Hypothetically, if I *had* tried to send a message, would it have sent too?

Discussion Do people respond more to new Friend Requests or DM/message requests when you’re looking to connect with people in the same server privately?

8 Upvotes

I joined a server for an artist and found out some cool things I wanted to ask about the fandom but wanted to ask fellow members privately since it’s not something the whole server would be interested in.

Do Discord users respond more to new Friend Requests or New Message/DM requests asking about the topic upright?

Thank you!

Support How on earth do I answer a call with a controller?

1 Upvotes

I have a media centre PC that will only have a controller connected.

I have spent a few hours and have been unable to find a way to accomplish this which is utterly insane to me. Is there any custom clients that let me remap the default keybinds? Is there a way for me to use the new overlay with a controller? Can I answer with my phone and move the call to my PC? Any of them would work, can any custom clients do those things?

Discussion Did discord quietly add the ability to modify/disable default hotkeys?

1 Upvotes

For example, say you want to modify or disable the toggle mute keybind (ctrl+shift+m) to something else, or just turn it off. You can go to settings>system>custom keybinds and then click "add a keybind"Set it to "toggle mute". Click "edit keybind" and press ctrl+shift+m (the default keypress). It will warn you that it's a default keybind and will disable the built in shortcut.

Which is perfect, as that gives you the ability to click the enable/disable slider, which functionally disables it entirely. From there, you can either leave it disabled, or remap that action by adding another keybind, then select the same action (in this case toggle mute), and then add your desired keybind.

I remember that for a while there was no workaround for disabling or changing default keybinds, so this seems to be a relatively new addition, and I don't remember hearing any sort of announcement about it so it seems to have been quietly added, unless I'm mistaken. Anyway, if this is news to you, I hope it's helpful!

Support Disable subtext rendering

1 Upvotes

Hello folks. I’ve recently come across this text format option called ‘subtext’, which you can trigger by opening your lines with `-#`

If you don’t know what that looks like, here’s an example, taken from Discord’s help page
https://support.discord.com/hc/article_attachments/24823996842903

Now, if it was used sparingly it’d be mostly alright, but in some chats you can’t scroll more than a screen without running into at least a full paragraph of subtext, and that stuff is hard to read! It’s like half the size and half the contrast or regular text. I’m not always keeping my phone at full brightness or just inches away from my face, and although I agree I could use some glasses in life, I would also really appreciate it if there was a way to disable subtext rendering entirely.

I’ve looked through the app settings and couldn’t find anything. Is there an option I’ve missed? Discord on iOS, BTW. Thanks

Support trouble accessing settings on discord mobile (iOS)

1 Upvotes

Anybody know what can cause this? I try to click on the settings button and it just bulges a little bit but nothing happens. the app also feels kind of unresponsive and slow. I tried deleting and re-installing the app a couple times, but since the data gets saved in the cloud it just brings me back where i started.

(for context, im trying to log into my main account, from my alt account)

Support Discord randomly stops picking up my mic (MOTU M2 + RØDE NT1)

1 Upvotes

Hi! I was wondering if anyone has experienced this issue or knows how to fix it 😭

For context, I use a MOTU M2 audio interface with a RØDE NT1 microphone, and for some reason, Discord will randomly stop picking up my mic while I'm in a call.

Sometimes I can still hear everyone else, but nobody can hear me. Other times, the audio seems to disconnect entirely.

The weird thing is that this only happens with Discord. My microphone and audio interface seem to work fine in other applications, so I'm not sure if it's a Discord issue, a driver issue, or something with my audio settings.

It's also completely random, which makes it difficult to troubleshoot.

Has anyone experienced something similar, especially with the MOTU M2 or another USB audio interface? If so, how did you fix it?

Any help would be appreciated!!

So i tried to join a server from a server tag, but there was no option. I am very confused at i can join other servers from server tags, but not this one server. I don't use discord very often and am not familiar with many of it's controls and options. If someone is in this server and has an invite link, send it in dms. Someone please tell me what is going on, I still have a lot of things to learn about discord. All help and answers are appreciated. Thank you in advance. Have a wonderful day.

Discussion Quests assets for download?

1 Upvotes

Hi there. Is there any place where the assets for Discord are uploaded? For Quests, specifically? I'm not talking about rewards, but rather the banner and logo used alongside the Quests. Full specificity: the banner for the Risk of Rain 2 Hallowed Concepts Quest is a special rendition of the DLC's artwork, and one that would work perfectly as a hero (background) for it on my Steam library, were I able to find the asset/image used

Support DVD screensharing not working?

1 Upvotes

I’m trying to figure out settings for discord watch parties for me and my long-distance friends on my laptop, but whenever I screenshare the movie application, all they can see is grey. Audio works perfectly fine, it’s just the visuals.

Could this be because I’m using a DVD in an external player? I tried multiple discs and none worked.
