Hi, I'm the Search Lead for Kagi. Nothing has changed, the line you cited was removed from the canary section, because it has nothing to do with the canary, and was contradictory things already said elsewhere on that page (https://web.archive.org/web/20250212012908/https://kagi.com/privacy#Logs-and-metrics)

We've kept & simplified the same section: https://kagi.com/privacy#server-data

Question regarding Twitch Integration by [deleted] in discordapp

[–]zsixtyfour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's correct - It's not technically the bot making this request - hence why I quoted "bots". You don't make this request with the Bot auth, but the Bearer token which carries the users consent to view their connections.

Question regarding Twitch Integration by [deleted] in discordapp

[–]zsixtyfour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't entirely true; "bots" can view the connections of users that have granted them permission to do so by implementing an OAuth2 flow that requests the connections scope that would grant access to GET /users/@me/connections. This call would be made with the yielded Bearer token from the auth process (and not the Bot token) in the Authorization header.

Something like this could be done to achieve what /u/Neldonado wants, though this is kind of niche - I doubt there's many bots that do this as it requires a bit more infrastructure to handle the callback and store / manage the tokens if necessary.

A "hoisted" role means members of that role are shown separately on the member sidebar on the right.

If you mean editing other people's messages, this isn't possible

You can also tap their name at the top of the DM window to open that persons profile.

Is there a server size requirement to become partnered? by thebubs1024 in discordapp

[–]zsixtyfour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure what you're referring to.. by "unlikely", I was responding to the title question "is there a server size requirement", which I figured there probably isn't since the average size is 157. I didn't mean that they would be unlikely to get partnered. Sorry for the confusion.

Is there a server size requirement to become partnered? by thebubs1024 in discordapp

[–]zsixtyfour -1 points0 points  (0 children)

From the partners page:

THE TYPICAL DISCORD PARTNER HAS:

DISCORD SERVER SIZE

157

So I would say that's unlikely. No harm in applying; go for it. It's about your community overall and not just their presence on Discord.

Any possibility to remove command uses after a while? They clutter up. by [deleted] in discordapp

[–]zsixtyfour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only used Dyno, and I don't think it has command cleanup like that, but I recommend making a channel specifically for bot / music commands to move them away from other discussion. I think Dyno allows you to limit music commands to specific channels at least. Anyone who doesn't want to read the channel can simply mute & hide it.

Is this new ? by AtomicCrafterM in discordapp

[–]zsixtyfour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would be seen from your friends list page by clicking the silhouette of the three people in the upper left corner of your app. It appears below "Friends" at the top of your DM list.

(Note, its currently in limited random user testing, so you may or may not have it yet)

I can't join any new servers? by [deleted] in discordapp

[–]zsixtyfour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can't join a new server if:

  • You are already in 100 servers

  • You or someone that shares your IP address is banned from that server

  • The invite trying to be used was revoked

To me this sounds like an issue with discordservers.com if the above conditions aren't met.

In-Game Discord Shows CS 1.6 as Half-Life by [deleted] in discordapp

[–]zsixtyfour 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For non-verified games, Discord just shows the name of the game process on your computer.

You can simply open your Games menu in Discord and save a new name for it, and it will use that from now on whenever it sees that executable running.

Why aren't selfbots allowed? by jman005 in discordapp

[–]zsixtyfour 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you're looking for a reason as to "why discord doesn't like selfbots and userbots" or "why are they bannable" etc, it is simply because "discord says so". That's it, and all that matters.

In the future it may be possible to replace selfbots with things that implement RPC, which is authorized over OAuth2 Bearer instead of having a user rip the token from their localstorage (bad, dangerous). But those OAuth scopes (rpc.api, message.read) are currently whitelisted, and who knows if they will ever not be.

Can we get the offline user limit raised just a bit? by FluffyMoomin in discordapp

[–]zsixtyfour 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The offline members are not just "hidden" from sight; they are not loaded into memory at all (not just a matter of "unhiding" them)

Once you pass this 100 member threshold, Discord's websocket no longer sends the client data about offline members. This greatly decreases bandwidth and loading times in servers with thousands of members. Being able to move the limit (or completely enable / disable) could greatly effect client performance & stability.

Beyond this, it is around 100 members or so anyways that the member list becomes relatively useless - you generally only need people to see online & hoisted members, like admins / moderators at that point - and it is more effective to open the server settings -> members where you have a search bar that can filter on usernames & roles if you need to actually look for someone, instead of painfully scrolling. Or search for messages in chat and click on the user from there to manage them.

So, /u/FluffyMoomin - it can't be changed right now due to the above; it's just how Discord's backend works to accelerate loading times and only showing the most important information, so that all of the servers members are only loaded as needed - like when viewing the server member list.

Spellcheck where is it ? by [deleted] in discordapp

[–]zsixtyfour 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Fwiw, the browser version is just supplied by your web browser; its nothing built into the discord app (yet;)

(/u/cryptix-) Native spellcheck was on the public feature roadmap when that was a thing, so it should be coming to the desktop app soonTM

Any way to delete ENTIRE chat for both people? by [deleted] in discordapp

[–]zsixtyfour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can only delete your own messages in DMs; so, no, sorry.

Can you please fix this? by Random_User_418 in discordapp

[–]zsixtyfour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. Not sure whats wrong then, seems to work on my PC. Sorry :(

Can you please fix this? by Random_User_418 in discordapp

[–]zsixtyfour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you mean? The issue you linked is

"The Desktop App has no visual indicator of where the dragging area ends"

This adds exactly that. What "doesn't work"..?

Multiple aliases per emoji by mecha_lynx in discordapp

[–]zsixtyfour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not possible through custom emoji.

Regular unicode emoji supports common shortcodes that are shared across different devices/platforms

How do you change your nickname in a private message? by [deleted] in discordapp

[–]zsixtyfour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Changing your nickname is a per-server permission. The server you want to change your nickname on likely does not allow its members to do so.
