Did you know that Discord's developers embedded hidden tricks in the app? In addition to joining servers and voice-chatting , you can also discover fun hidden tricks called easter eggs that most Discord users don't know about! Once you know how to activate Discord easter eggs, you can discover secret animations, sounds, games, and even a special hidden dark mode for Android! This wikiHow article lists the best easter eggs that you can find on Discord using your computer or the mobile app.

Things You Should Know

Click the Discord logo in your desktop app to hear a "Discordo" sound effect whenever you open the app.
You'll see different messages when you click to copy your username more than once.
Most Discord Easter Eggs only work on the desktop app, but plenty are available on Android, iPhone, iPad, on the web.

Copy Username Tag

Download Article

Click to copy your username, move your mouse away, then click to copy your username again. You won't get this effect if you're using the app on your Android or iPhone, so you have to use your computer. But when you do this in the PC or Mac app, you'll see: Copied!, Double Copy!, Triple Copy!, Dominating!!, Rampage!!, Mega Copy!!, Unstoppable!!, Wicked Sick!!, Monster Copy!!!, GODLIKE!!!, BEYOND GODLIKE!!!! ^{[2]

- To copy your username tag, click your profile picture (it's in the lower-left corner of the desktop app) and click your username in the menu that pops up. You'll see a "Copied" message. Move your cursor away from your username (like on the banner of the pop-up is fine) to get that message to disappear, then click your username again. You'll see a "Double Copy" notification. Move away, then click it again to see "Triple Copy!"

AMOLED Dark Theme on Android

Download Article

Since Dark mode is more like grey, AMOLED makes your phone screen actually dark. To trigger the AMOLED theme, tap your profile picture, then go to Appearance and tap on "Dark" 10 times. The background will change from grey to black, but if you accidentally tapped too many times, you'll see a toggle for the AMOLED theme below the options for Dark and Light. ^{[7]

Humans.txt

Download Article

Go to https://discord.com/humans.txt . It's Discord's opposite equivalent of a robot.txt that usually tells crawlers what to index and what to avoid. A humans.txt file is a more popular upload in current tech companies on company web servers, just for giggles. Because, you know, robots vs humans.

11

Computer Man

Download Article

Go to https://printer.discord.com in a web browser on any device. The link redirects to a "Computer Man" YouTube video, which is a reference to an old Canadian TV show called Vid Kids.

Mario Box & Green Vials

Download Article

Go to http://web.archive.org/web/20190307024741/https://discordapp.com/ to see the old version of Discord's home page. There you can click the "?" box to see items from Mario appear (like mushrooms, coins, and Super Stars). Click the vial of green liquid to see bubbles come out of it.
- Discord updated their home page, so this was only available to see live 2017-2019. Luckily, you can still see it with the WayBack Machine .

15

Ridiculous Username (Retired)

Download Article

A username tag can be between 2 and 32 characters long, but if the entered username was long and ridiculous (like a set of emojis rather than a name), the "Edit" button on your "My Account" page would become "ಠ_ಠ".
