Maintainer activity

4 people did triage or write work on this repository in the last 12 months.

Counts unlabeled, assigned, unassigned, milestoned, demilestoned, locked, unlocked over the last 12 months. These are issue and pull request events that require triage or write permission. Commits and code review are not counted. labeled and renamed are excluded because GitHub issue forms record the issue author as the actor. Figures from October 18, 2026. This count is not comparable across projects: each project's automation decides which of these events a person emits. How this is counted.

Detailed Description

Discordo is a lightweight, secure, and feature-rich Discord terminal client written in Go that provides users with a text-based interface for accessing Discord on the command line. The project is classified across multiple domains including Discord clients, terminal user interfaces, chat and messaging applications, and real-time communication tools. It is designed to be cross-platform, supporting Windows, macOS, and Linux systems.

The repository demonstrates active development with a focus on feature expansion and bug fixes.

Installation options are flexible and accommodate different user preferences. Prebuilt binaries are available for Windows, macOS, and Linux through nightly builds. The project is packaged in multiple package managers including Arch Linux via yay, Gentoo through the guru repositories, FreeBSD via pkg and ports, Nix, and Windows Scoop, making it accessible to users across different operating systems and package management ecosystems. Users can also build from source if preferred.

Authentication is handled through multiple methods. Users can log in via a token entered through the UI, which is the recommended approach, or by setting the DISCORDO_TOKEN environment variable. Additionally, QR code login is supported, allowing users to authenticate by scanning a QR code displayed in the application. This multi-method approach provides flexibility for different user workflows and security preferences.

Configuration is highly customizable through a TOML configuration file. The application respects platform-specific configuration directories, storing settings in XDG_CONFIG_HOME on Unix systems, the Library Application Support folder on macOS, and AppData on Windows. Users can customize behavior, keybindings, and themes through this configuration system. A default configuration is provided and documented within the repository, though the application will function with default settings if no custom configuration file is present.

The project includes important usage warnings regarding Discord's Terms of Service, specifically noting that automated user accounts or self-bots violate Discord's policies and that the maintainer is not responsible for account loss resulting from such usage. The project is licensed under the GNU General Public License v3.0, with copyright held by ayn2op from 2025 onward. The repository maintains active CI workflows and publishes a Go Report Card badge, indicating attention to code quality standards. A dedicated Discord server is available for community discussion and support.
