FAQ

Will using BetterDiscord get my Discord account banned?+
BetterDiscord modifies the Discord client which technically violates Discord's Terms of Service. In practice, bans for BetterDiscord use are extremely rare — it has millions of active users. However, the theoretical risk exists.
Does BetterDiscord slow down Discord?+
Minimal impact with a few plugins installed. Heavy plugin use (10+) may add some loading time. Themes generally have no performance impact.
Can I go back to normal Discord after installing BetterDiscord?+
Yes — BetterDiscord installs alongside Discord and can be uninstalled at any time. The built-in Dual Boot mode also lets you switch between modded and normal Discord instantly.
