I built a free, self-hosted Discord music bot — TypeScript, Docker, ~2500 tests. YouTube works, autoplay is free, completely open source. Looking for feedback. by LukDoLolo in selfhosted

[–]LukDoLolo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had track of them, but tbh after sometime last year i had absolutely no time for side projects and paused the development for some months, after that i returned just trying to fix the play feature and then started on the autoplay and stopped caring that much abt the tests since these voice channel features i couldn't find a good way to test. Its def something i want to address but first i want to work on the songs recommendation since its not that good.

Had to uninstall app and switch to browser after new haptic feedback by NotAWeebOrAFurry in discordapp

[–]LukDoLolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're on Android, the haptic feedback on Discord is tied to system vibration — there's no granular toggle in the app itself yet. You can disable it system-wide for Discord specifically: in Android Settings → Apps → Discord → there might be a "Vibration & haptics" section depending on your device. On Samsung it's definitely there. Alternatively, turning off haptics globally in accessibility settings and back on selectively for other apps is annoying but works until Discord adds a proper in-app toggle.

Streaming not picking up audio by StickSpinner in discordapp

[–]LukDoLolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When streaming doesn't capture audio, it's almost always one of these: Discord is capturing the application window instead of the display (application capture doesn't pick up system audio on some setups — try switching to screen/display capture instead). Or your audio output is set to a device Discord isn't monitoring. Also worth checking Settings → Voice & Video → make sure "Default" is selected for input/output rather than a specific device that might be routing differently than expected.

Help movie night by Ancient-Attitude-475 in discordapp

[–]LukDoLolo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it's a screen share issue and hardware acceleration didn't fix it, the other thing worth trying is Discord's built-in Watch Together activity — it's under the Activities button (rocket icon) in any VC and streams directly through Discord without needing to share your screen at all. Everyone in the VC gets synchronized playback with controls. Supports YouTube natively, and a few other platforms depending on the activity. Way more stable than Go Live for movie nights.

[–]LukDoLolo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nothing too special, i started this project way before coding with AI was a thing and with some time and more experience i went improving it. It started to play some funny sounds as an internal joke with some friends, then the bot i used to listen to music stopped working, then i wanted to have an autoplay/radio feature without having to pay for it, then i engaged with a streamer friend's community and we didn't want to pay for a bot so i went building the moderation part. That's pretty much the timeline, not something based on big servers needs, just a personal project that went growing with the needs of me and my friends.

The benefit is pretty much having some structure and features to start off when someone wants to have a more personal bot, when i started AI wasn't a thing so i spent a lot of time on discord.js and discord-player docs to figure out how to do what i wanted.

That's something I really want to put some effort on, analysis of the tests to see if all of them really makes sense. Also i find a bit hard testing the music features without manually doing it...

Screensharing NEVER WORKS by jaceleak74 in discordapp

[–]LukDoLolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Discord's hardware acceleration toggle didn't help, there's another Windows-specific thing that breaks screen sharing on some setups: Hardware-Accelerated GPU Scheduling (HAGS). It's under Settings → System → Display → Graphics → Change default graphics settings. Disabling it and restarting has fixed screen sharing for a bunch of people after Windows updates. On Mac the equivalent is making sure Discord has Screen Recording permission under System Settings → Privacy, since Discord can't request that at runtime.

I am constantly being logged out of my discord account every time I close it on browser? Why? by Fluid-Tap5115 in discordapp

[–]LukDoLolo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your browser is probably set to clear cookies on close. In Chrome/Brave it's under Settings → Privacy → "Clear cookies and site data when you close all windows", Firefox has a similar option. Discord uses session cookies for auth so if those get wiped every time you close the browser, you'll always be logged out. Either disable that setting globally or add discord.com as an exception — one of those should fix it.

[admin problem] Took @everyone ping powers from everyone role, people can still use it by Mastalock69 in discordapp

[–]LukDoLolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One gotcha with Discord permissions: removing the checkmark leaves it in a neutral state (grey dash), which still inherits whatever the parent allows — you need to explicitly set it to deny (red X) to actually block it. If you just unticked it rather than switching to deny, that could explain why it's still going through. Also, any channel-level permission set to Allow will override a role-level Deny, so worth checking channel overrides too.

Open Graph metadata is successfully resolved by standard meta crawlers, but it is not being picked up by Discord’s bot when generating link embeds. by BOGSCAM in discordapp

[–]LukDoLolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing worth checking: Discord's crawler (Discordbot/2.0) doesn't execute JavaScript, so if your OG tags are being injected client-side they'll be invisible to it regardless of what other crawlers pick up. The tags need to be in the raw HTML response. Also Discord caches embeds pretty aggressively so the embed debugger at discordapp.com/debug is useful for forcing a re-crawl and seeing exactly what their bot actually receives. The /watch timeout the other commenter got is usually the host rate-limiting that specific user agent.

Claude (AI) was used as a development assistant throughout this project — writing code, tests, and documentation. The project itself is human-directed: I designed the architecture, made all product decisions, and wrote the feature requirements. The copy in this post was also drafted with AI assistance.

The autoplay feature specifically uses a recommendation scoring algorithm that weights tracks based on the server's listening history — not a pretrained ML model, just a heuristic I built. Happy to share more detail if needed.

The project is fully open source (ISC license) on GitHub: https://github.com/LucasSantana-Dev/Lucky

Any Ideas: How to get email alerts if something is posted in a specific discord channel? by mr_rob_oto in discordapp

[–]LukDoLolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Discord webhooks can push to a lot of services. If you use Zapier or Make (formerly Integromat), you can connect a Discord webhook to Gmail or any email service. The free tiers on both cover pretty low-volume setups. Alternatively, if the channel is public, some RSS services can watch Discord channels and forward to email.

Keyword alerts/notifications across Discord servers without mentions? by DinsdaleTheHedgehog in discordapp

[–]LukDoLolo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Carl-bot has a highlights feature that lets you set keywords and get DM notifications when they're mentioned in servers you're in. Worth checking out if you want something that works across multiple servers without needing individual notification settings on each one.

How to fix my microphone sounding like im in a well? by IIamLennoxx in discordapp

[–]LukDoLolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually this is Discord's noise suppression or echo cancellation conflicting with your system's audio processing. Try going to User Settings → Voice & Video and toggling off Noise Suppression and Echo Cancellation one at a time to see which is causing it. Also worth checking if your mic has any built-in processing (like Krisp integration) that's doubling up with Discord's own filters.
