About Discord
Discord, at discord.com, is group chat for playing games, talking with friends, and building a community. The homepage says you customize your own space to talk, play, and hang out. You get text channels, voice, and video, on a desktop app, a phone app, and the website.
Discord is free to use. Paid Nitro plans are listed on discord.com. This page does not restate those prices.
On November 4, 2026, CTO Stanislav Vishnevskiy said Discord is rebuilding the whole client in Rust. Electron goes away on desktop, and React Native goes away on mobile. Phones keep a native interface and share application code with the desktop app through Rust. The interface toolkit is GPUI, not Tauri. He hopes to get it into testing with users soon. That client is not what you install today, and there is no release date.
