A faster client for slow computers. Mainly focuses on reducing the memory footprint. No web-framework is involved.
|
|
|
|
**This client is not a full replacement and never will be!** Due to Discord's TOS, [automating users beyond the bot API is not allowed](https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/115002192352-Automated-user-accounts-self-bots-). This introduces limitations, like being unable to create groups, join servers and add friends.
|
|
|
|
This is made to allow you to stay in touch with friends. Servers will only receive basic support.
