About Discord Status Types

 

In general, Discord offers four types of statuses for users:

 

  •  Online

 

This is the default status in Discord, and if you set the status as “Online,” it is indicated by a green dot next to your avatar. The Online status lets other people know that you are available for chat.

 

  •  Idle

 

The status “Idle” means that you were not online for a while. When the Idle status is activated, it shows as a yellow dot next to your avatar. Discord automatically sets the Idle status when you haven’t been active on the app for a while.

 

  •  Do not Disturb

 

This status (DnD) lets other users know that you are not available for chat and shouldn’t be disturbed. You can see this status is activated when there is a red circle next to your avatar.

 

  •  Invisible

 

With “Invisible” status, you will appear offline on Discord, and nobody can recognize that you are available. You still have access to all Discord features while you are “Invisible.”

 

There is also a “Custom status,” Discord allows you to set a custom display message for each of the four status types or for a particular period of time in certain conditions.

 

Note that although all of these statuses can be set manually, “Online” and “Idle” as server-controlled statuses, while “Do not Disturb” and “Invisible” are user-activated.
