2015.10.21 — Change Log

Our blog has moved to our main website! Check us out on discord.com/blog to stay in the loop about future posts.

• Compact Chat mode is now available! See the above video for hype.
• Mic volume no longer resets to 100% all the time. This one’s for you summit1g! Note: If you previously adjusted your mic volume you should double check it!
• Embeds are no longer huge and stupid due to support for oEmbed, Facebook Open Graph, Twitter Cards, and the Media Wiki formats.
• YouTube and Vimeo videos can be played inline without leaving the familiar space of your server. Want another HTML5 video site to work? Tweet us a suggestion @discordapp.
• Mega Performance improvements and bandwidth reduction for servers with thousands of people. Role Colors now work on Android (and in the members tab on iOS). Pocket rainbow!
• Windows Installer has gone through behavioral training and has had many edge cases fixed. Code Markdown parsing is improved and should result in less random crap after your code blocks.
• OSX App Performance has been greatly tuned. It is now a complete cybernetic organism.

• We Have The Jobs: Discord Co needs help building more awesomerer features. We’re looking for experienced Erlang/Elixir, Reactjs, Python, and/or C++ developers. Visit our company page to learn more and apply.
• Twitch Integration: Partnered streamers rejoice! The robot hamsters now automagically sync your subs to create exclusive channels and/or servers. Discord will even boot people after they stop subbing with an optional grace period. Check our blog for all the details.
• Android Dark Theme: The Dark Side has gone mobile. No more burning your eyes when you chat on the go. iOS will be coming soon!
• @Autocomplete 2.0: Fuzzy search is now a fallback for @mentioning that one guy with weird crap in his username.
• Colors!: You can now change username colors based on the roles in your server. Taste the rainbow and liven up your chat.
• Visible Roles: Your server’s roles can be separated on the channel member pane. No more wondering who to complain to about kicking that one guy.
• /giphy: Post GIFs. Live Life.
• /me: was wondering how long it’d take until this feature showed up. #IStandWithSlashMe
• /tableflip: Seriously? You did what? (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
• @Mention Highlights: An Amazon Basics delivery arrived with a whole lot of highlighters. Your @mentions are now called out for easy identifying.
• Offline @Mentioning has been re-enabled for large communities thanks to a hamster powered UI perf improvement. Make phones go buzz buzz.
• Code Markdown: Because sharing code should be pretty. This one’s for you reactiflux. console.log(‘Discord supports inline blocks too’);
• Kick & Ban Heuristics: People who have kick privileges can no longer kick others with kick privileges. Same goes for banning. Stop mod-on-mod violence today.
• Channel Topics: Your friends not sure what to talk about? Have an event planned? Set a text channel’s topic and solve all your problems.
• Moderation Improvements: Lots of small quality improvements to make moderating communities easier: many panels don’t auto close, usernames are clickable in chat, see what roles people have, and more.
• Goodbye Fuzzy Search: We thought it would be fancy, but it actually was just annoying. Autocomplete for @mentions just matches what you’re typing, nothing else.
• YouTube Video Links: Anchor tags are no longer stripped from links. It’s now possible to link directly to the YouTube moment where Rick and Morty arrive on Gazorpazorp.
• iOS Message Editing: You can now edit your messages on iOS. Press and hold to see the popup menu option. Great for those autoforest tpyos.
• iOS Moderation Too: It’s easier to moderate on iOS now. Press and hold on a message to see the User Settings option. From there, ban, kick, /tableflip, whatever.

• Push Notification delay properly resets when you send a message. Android users will have less pain.
• Our backend has gotten yet another performance upgrade. Discord hype!
• User volume slider is now capped at 100% in the browser client. It never worked anyway…
• Various UI improvements related to long lines and short lines and dots.
• The direct message panel will load and scroll faster, especially if you’re really popular.
• The box you type into now shrinks down properly after sending a novel or really long rant.
• Muting channels is easier now that the hit area is larger than 1px. Congrats to anyone who used it before. You have talent.

• Role colors for iOS will be here soon.
• In-game overlay! We’re just playing Rocket League a lot to make sure it works. Also Half Life 3.
• Localization is almost here. This is a community supported effort. Help translate Discord now!
• Friends List. Because sometimes you don’t want that one person to hang out with all your friends.
• Clear history in channels. For those times when you just want to pretend it all never happened.
• All the things!! (even more)
