How to Use Discord - Beginner's Guide

Discord is an all-in-one communication platform and it has voice chat, video chat, text chat, screen share and it's free to use.

You can follow public servers or join private ones.
Discord is organized this way:
Sever is at the top level.
Inside of each server, you have channels.

You can set your status on discord as online, idle, do not disturb, or invisible.

To start, you can join a server or you can create one by pressing the plus icon.

To join a channel, you need the link for that server.

But anyone can create one.

Inside of each server, you can have voice channels and you can have text channels. You can also create categories to organize your channels into folders.

When I downloaded discord I was lost and I didn’t even know what I was doing. I deleted the app months ago out of frustration. After watching this video everything started to make sense. Thank you so much.

Very simple and str8 forward. I'm also new to discord and I had created one but sincerely, I was lost inside but now after watching this video, I can confirm that I have found myself and I'm back to the fullest. Thank you so much.

I am visually impaired so often trying to determine what is being presented graphically creates a lot of challenges your explanation however has given me a lot of insight as to what is going on on the screen and I’m sure I will be able to follow along with my screen reading technology to be able to now participate with a Discord channels and have my own discord server thank you for this

[starfire]

Thank you. Your video is so clear. I was so lost when I first logged onto to Discord.

[byronvaughan-dickson]

Thank you for your excellent presentation 10/10, I don’t know why I found Discord so daunting! 👏👏👏

[molleeparis]

omg my online friend asked me if i wanted to go there and play truth or dare and my worst fear is so weird because i cant really talk to strangers its just not comfortable and i cant talk with people i don’t know idk how to use discord

[crypla]

This video is great, thanks! I was too lost when I attempted to use discord....now it makes sense.

Thanks for your help. Elder Millennial here and I'm very tech savvy. Been able to get away with avoiding Discord until just now, as I like to keep my electronic footprint small (not liking that my information is constantly being passed around from corp to corp), but had no choice but to join a server today. But Discord's interface is just exhausting to look at. Frankly, I'd rather be expending mental energy programming shaders than trying to figure out the trivialities of which buttons do what on Discord's very disorganized-looking UI.

[cydikcw]

[francoisgermain]

Exactly what I was looking for, thank you sir!
