The culture on discords tend to be way better than anywhere else on the internet, but discord really sucks to use. Somehow still doesn’t have a usable search, really underpowered notifications control, they have the worst pop ups imaginable that seem to just float on top of the whole interface and make it impossible to use.

I really wish something better would come along.

I wish Discord had a betrer account switcher on mobile. I have a realname account for friends ana family, and another I use with randos.

    I use discord PTB and Canary to run multiple instances with different accounts on a single device.

    It also allows running multiple instances with a single account (to be on multiple vocals at once for example).

    The only drawback is the release cycle is more frequent and I need to update every time I boot.

It can do per channel and per server notifications for all messages, @mentions, or none.

What else would you want?

    I also want levels of notifications. Especially emergency one - Some channels are super critical and I want to be notified immediately, give me a popup, ring my phone, override if my phone is on mute, then call me. Kind of like pagerduty.

    I lurk in a bunch of Discords for things I'm not active in, but don't want to have to find an invite to if I need to ask a question in the future.

    I always have a notification badge on Discord, and I hate it. Too many servers have channels where I get pinged, even though the channel is muting. I'm presuming someone is doing something like "hey @all, play with me"

    I ought to be able to register that I will never ever care about this channel. Please ignore it for me.
