Discord just forced changes on everyone that nobody asked for—face scans, ID verification, and settings you never agreed to. In this video, I stop waiting for Discord to “fix” itself and I take control of the client using BetterDiscord. It’s still the same Discord app and the same account, but with full customization: themes, plugins, and even custom CSS if you want to go deeper. I walk you through installing BetterDiscord, where to find the new BetterDiscord menu inside User Settings, and how to use the built-in theme store. I test a few themes like Frosted Glass (nice blur), Fluent (Windows 11-style), and my favorite: Midnight, which instantly makes Discord look clean and modern. Then I add plugins that actually improve daily use: Better Animations for slick channel switching, Better Volume for manual volume values, Spotify Controls for playback controls, and Pin DMs to keep important chats at the top. I also show how to uninstall BetterDiscord properly using the installer, so you can revert Discord back to default anytime.
