Releases: bag-xml/Discord-Classic
v0.9 | Release Candidate 1
This release of discord classic brings a lot of new features, bugfixes and refinements with it, those are as follows:
User Interface changes:
-
New: Opt out mode
Opt out mode allows you to re-experience the classic, familiar UI of Discord Classic before 2023. If you don't like the new user interface you can "opt-out" of it and get into this mode to re-experience the previous hacky DIY feel the app gave off. On lower end devices "Opt Out" mode is recommended as with it the app tends to run a bit more lightweight and therefore, faster. Opt out will have modern features backported, such as visible replies, profile pages, speed and connectivity improvements etc.
(can you believe that this is actually a modern build? me neither.) -
New: Experimental mode:
Experimental mode is for the users who'd like to experience something out of the ordinary. This option allows you to use an alternate user interface with a content, left-right sidebar principle. Keep in mind however, that this is experimental, and therefore, laggy. Bugs are prone to happen, and you should be prepared when using this mode.
(Here is an example of the new experimental mode)

A lot of UI tweaks, rectification and enhancements in the app
The UI was made more consistent within the app. This will get apparent to the user once they start to use the app again.
New features:
- New, less "in-your-face" connection indicator which slides down from the top and disappears when it's done
- Handling of different message types such as join, leave, pin message, boost, etc, not leaving them to be empty and laggy anymore.
- Better out-of-box experience
- User activity statuses (DND, Online, Offline, Absent)
- Server banners
- Mutual friends
- Brand new profile pages, having almost as much use as on computers
- Reply to messages (by quoting them for now)
- Mention users
- Being able to directly DM users from the profile page, an extremely small yet useful change.
- Better recipient lists
- See your own information
Bugfixes:
- You can now send photos and videos on iPad, as the bug that prevented that from happening has been fixed.
- Seeing channels you don't have permission for is fixed now.
