Discord is a great platform for gamers to communicate and share games. However, there are some ways to make it difficult for others to see what you’re playing on the platform. Here are four tips:

  1. Use a pseudonym If you want others to not know who you are, use a pseudonym. This will make it difficult for others to track down your game or chat session. It’s also a good way to protect yourself from being spied on or hacked.
  2. Hide your chat logs and messages If you want others to not see what you’re saying in your chat logs and messages, hide them. This will make it difficult for other players to track down the conversation or find the message that they were looking for. It’s also a good way to protect yourself from being hacked or spied on in your chat sessions.
  3. Use encryption software If you want others not to be able to see what you’re saying in your chat logs and messages, use encryption software. This will make it difficult for other players to read or access your conversations without having access to your data. It’s also a good way of protecting yourself from being hacked or spied on in your chats sessions.

Discord automatically shows your friends the games you’re playing. If a game uses Discord’s Rich Presence feature, your friends can even see where you are in-game. Here’s how you can deactivate this feature and increase your privacy while gaming.

Open the Settings menu in Discord by clicking the cog in the bottom left next to your name and avatar.

Navigate to the “Activity Privacy” tab on the left. Deactivate the “Display Current Activity As A Status Message” toggle, and Discord will stop sharing your gaming activity.

You can now close the Settings screen.

You can always enable this setting again using these same steps if you want Discord to show others what you’re playing, metadata about the state of your game, or even what you’re listening to in Spotify.
