### 2/5 — Notification overload

*2026-08-25, version 342.0*

Started notifying me all the time when people log on. That’s not going to fly

Couldn’t turn it off either. Not cool. Not cool. Im not that loyal here either 

I just want see the my messages. 

Deleted forever 

Cheers,

### 3/5 — Servers

*2026-08-25, version 342.0*

Can't join some of the discord I want to

### 4/5 — I LOVE DISCORDDD

*2026-08-25, version 342.0*

I love Discord so much but it always has a stupid lag where when I start a call with anybody we all start glitching at the start where we can’t hear each other’s Mic but otherwise I love all the features and stuff except for the netro:P

### 1/5 — it’s 2026

*2026-08-25, version 342.0*

Sending videos shouldn’t require me to spend money I can literally do it on every single app, get with the times you dorks.

### 1/5 — Banned

*2026-08-25, version 342.0*

I have been ban for dumb things like for an photo of my project and saying I’m under age wen I’m 15 years old,discord is so dumb I choose twitch over discord

### 3/5 — I’ve been told I’m a bad writer but oh well

*2026-08-25, version 342.0*

Micro transactions, regardless of other communication networks like snap also having it it still is annoying, the file size one is the big reason for me, but there are other factors, if you wanna do almost any customization of your account/profile you’ll need to pay. The addition of orbs does make it more accessible but still limiting.
it’s annoying that if you want to do any practical personal communication you need to use a business oriented app with difficult interfaces, but for being a fully recreational app it’s also limiting, the paywall behind customization is annoying

Aside from that it’s a semi versatile app, but it makes me miss the MySpace days of creative freedom, but I understand why a user driven art community would be bad, especially when looking at stuff like the Black Ops weapon skins and emblems that we just pushing to be as edgy as possible and I fear that it would return if given another well established medium, and practically applications are limited, which is nice because it functions as an insurance that it won’t become the next Microsoft Teams

My final review is a 3 because of a lack of definition, it’s just another texting app, I do prefer it because of the lack of short form content though, because even other apps like Snapchat are beginning to introduce it.

Still will continue to use until I find an adequate substitute.

### 1/5 — Constant adds nitro is a joke

*2026-08-25, version 342.0*

App has not changed in 5 years 

Could vibe code better setup these days 

Cost is crazy after two major data breaches 

Necessary evil since no solid competitors

### 1/5 — The worse place to form community

*2026-08-24, version 342.0*

Talk, Play, get preyed on. 

You gotta love a company that profits from the erosion of community and doesn’t have any guardrails for those who are seeking positive groups. 

It’s like a needle in the hay stack; majority of these communities are wasting everyone’s times. 

And if you do find something worthwhile the cons already outweigh the pros. 

Children and young adults stay off this app and try to find some sense of community in the real world.

### 1/5 — Fix your app

*2026-08-24, version 342.0*

Fix your app

### 1/5 — Abysmal outdated file size limit

*2026-08-25, version 342.0*

Skype had up to 300mb which was years ago. Why people constantly use this platform is beyond me. Some photos fail to upload. PHOTOS. We are not in the 90s. What are you doing discord? Everything is becoming worse day by day and I can’t take it anymore. I am not paying for any subscriptions just so that I can simply upload a 30mb video or photo. unbelievable.

### 1/5 — Why I can’t use discord

*2026-08-25, version 342.0*

So I’m 13 I was making an account and I accidentally put it to say that I’m nine and I’m trying to make it so that I can put my date of my birth, but I can’t because it won’t let me do it again and I don’t have an account for discord already so I need to get another one and I cannot get it on my iPad to call my friend

### 1/5 — Misery

*2026-08-25, version 342.0*

I miss that kind of misery this song is for all the people that love this app it’s full of com boys and com girls who spend their whole day on the computer

### 1/5 — NOT BANNING REAL INFO

*2026-08-25, version 342.0*

BRO I HEARED A LOT OF PEOPLE SHARE REAL INFO AND YOU DOn’T BAN THEM?

### 1/5 — Careful with this one parents.

*2026-08-25, version 342.0*

Make sure you know what chatroom your kids are in at all times. This app isn’t safe.

### 1/5 — Not good for calling

*2026-08-25, version 342.0*

Crashes constantly when you go into the call ui, like reliably more often then not. did they even test it?

### 1/5 — No free marketing

*2026-08-25, version 342.0*

Because it prompted me to create marketing I will complain instead

### 1/5 — Omg

*2026-08-25, version 342.0*

Dude my email is stuck in my old account while my phone number is stuck in my new one and I cant remove the email in my old one because I need to get verified and I can’t get verified because I need to verify my account and to do I need to verify my email and etc

### 1/5 — NOT FOR CHILDREN

*2026-08-25, version 342.0*

This app helped my child talk to complete strangers. They never helped me track down or report the persons involved but instead sent me a very generic and vague statement. They continue to not have strong checks and balances to protect our children from online predators.

### 1/5 — No Protection for Accounts

*2026-08-25, version 342.0*

I’ve lost my account a few times due to losing my devices and the manner of retrieving an account with authentication as a lock is impossible. I just wish they would make it easier to get my accounts. Years of lost messages history…

*2026-08-24, version 342.0*

I love discord and all the cool features but the only thing I don’t like on my phone and my besties I think it’s more people but I don’t know but it mutes us when we are talking so we have to hang up and join again so when we are not on mute it goes mute so we can’t hear anything but after all it’s great
