Discord is an exceptional application that allows video calls, messaging, gaming, streaming and much more all under one platform. However, it comes with users who can be inappropriate and irk others. And that’s why Discord has an option you can use to block out such users.
Are you wondering if users can tell they’ve been blocked?
Well, the answer is yes. They can find out they’ve been blocked. Click here to find out how.
Although, the user you blocked will be able to see your status (they can see if you’re online) and read your messages.
Blocking someone on Discord on Desktop
To block someone on Discord, open up the Discord server.
Click on the user’s name whom you want to block.
Once you click on their name, you’ll see 2 options below their name in chat: Remove friend and Block
