New breach: Discord server protection service Double Counter suffered a breach earlier this week due to a Metabase vulnerability. The data included 275k unique email addresses and Discord usernames. 25% were already in @haveibeenpwned. Read more: haveibeenpwned.com/Breach/DoubleC…

The Discord Bot, Double Counter, suffered a data breach & near complete takeover last week.

They were not complying with GDPR, and got caught with data they shouldn't have.

I wonder if Discord will take this illegal behaviour seriously, hard to feel bad for the developers here.

Discord is reworking the Friend list! Your Friends will be quickly accessible as a new sidebar anywhere in the app, allowing to to at a glance see what everyone is up to. You will also be able to create and share invite links that allow others to instantly add you as a friend!

They're also testing a separate version that will always show a collapsible sidebar on the right side. You can order people by activity, by current game, or alphabetically.

Discord is partnering with Riot Games to bring Nitro users a 10$ credit for in-game items in VALORANT or League of Legends. Eligible Nitro users will be able to see the promotion in their Nitro tab once it goes live.

Discord's end-of-year recap, Checkpoint, will be returning in 2026 featuring a brand new randomized Custom Character gimmick.

Discord is working on Game Mode. Once activated, Discord's client will automatically reduce animations and disable effects when it detects a game being played, freeing up CPU and GPU resources that might help your game run smoother.

You can now check your automatically estimated Age Group by visiting Account Settings on Desktop and Mobile! If you don't see the label yet check back throughout the coming weeks as verification continues to roll out to everyone.
