Better Discord

Better Discord upgrades Discord with stunning themes and smart message tools. Search, export, and organize with Better Discord.

Better Discord transforms your Discord experience into something far more powerful, giving you the tools you have been missing to manage conversations, discover content, and express yourself through beautiful custom themes. This extension brings professional-grade message management to your desktop, combining advanced search, bulk export, and organizational features that the base platform does not offer. Whether you are an active community manager, a content creator, or just someone who wants to keep their Discord history organized, this tool has everything you need to take control of your data and work more efficiently across all your servers and direct messages. 🎨 Features 1. **Powerful Export Options** — Back up your messages in multiple formats including HTML, Plain Text, CSV, JSON, and Media-only. Choose from ten built-in presets such as Full Archive, Data Analysis, and Media Gallery, or create your own custom presets with specific media type selection. Large exports are handled intelligently with automatic chunking and ZIP splitting to prevent browser crashes, and every export includes a helpful README file to help you navigate the output. 2. **Smart Search & Filter** — Find any message instantly with a two-layer search system that combines API queries with fast client-side filtering. Search by content, author, mentions, date range, and message type including images, videos, links, files, stickers, and more. The system automatically continues past result limits, and Load All mode renders results progressively as they arrive with retry logic for transient failures. 3. **Bulk Message Management** — Delete unwanted messages in bulk with powerful purge tools. Target messages by user, remove attachments while keeping text, or clear all reactions from a channel with a single click. Multi-channel operations are fully supported with filter integration, and archived threads are automatically unarchived during purge and re-archived when finished. 4. **Custom Themes & Appearance** — Make the platform truly yours with nine stunning preset themes including Midnight, Sakura, Frosted, Cyberpunk, Terminal, and Ocean. Adjust background images, blur, dim, and UI transparency. The Frosted Glass effect adds a modern, blurred aesthetic to your interface. Role colors and icons are displayed throughout the feed and user profiles for enhanced visual clarity. 5. **Data Package Import & Analytics** — Import the official data export ZIP directly into the extension. Browse all servers, channels, and DMs without needing API access. Generate analytics reports on mention frequency and user engagement, then export the data as CSV for further analysis in spreadsheet applications. A dedicated message table allows local content and date filtering on your complete history. 📖 Usage Getting started with this extension is straightforward: 1. **Install & Tour** — After installing, the extension will launch a guided tour the first time you open the platform. Follow the on-screen instructions to learn the key features and settings. A help icon (?) is available throughout the interface for contextual assistance. 2. **Access the Interface** — Look for the Better Discord button in the sidebar. Click it to open the main panel where you can access all features including Export, Search, Purge, Analytics, and Settings. The status log panel shows real-time operation progress with color-coded entries. 3. **Configure Your Preferences** — Visit the Settings panel to customize export formats, search delay rates, display preferences, and theme options. You can also set up custom keyboard shortcuts for frequently used actions. Rate limit configurations include randomization modifiers for safer bulk operations. 4. **Start Exporting or Searching** — Use the Search tab to find specific messages across your servers. When you are ready to back up your data, switch to the Export tab, choose your format and preset, and click Start. For message cleanup, the Purge tab offers granular controls for bulk deletion. 5. **Import Your Data** — If you have a data package from the official export tool, drag and drop the ZIP file into the Import section. The extension will parse and render your entire history, ready for browsing, searching, and managing. Optional rehydration fetches live reactions, edits, and replies from the API. 💰 Pricing This tool is free to use with no feature restrictions.

The extension only accesses information that you already have permission to view. **What happens to my data when using this extension?** All data processing happens locally in your browser. The extension does not upload, store, or transmit your messages to any external server. Your data remains entirely under your control. **Can I export messages from servers I am no longer in?** No, it can only export messages from servers and channels where you currently have access. Once you leave a server, the messages are no longer available through the API. **Does the export include media files like images and videos?** Yes, the HTML and Media-only export options include all images, videos, audio files, and stickers. You can customize which media types to include during the export setup process. **How does the purge feature work with pinned messages?** The extension includes a built-in safety check that preserves pinned messages during bulk purge operations. You can configure this behavior in the Settings panel if you need to delete pinned content. **Will using this extension get my account banned?** It uses official API endpoints and respects rate limits to minimize risk. However, any automation tool carries some inherent risk. Use the extension responsibly and avoid excessive bulk operations in short time periods. **Can I use this alongside other mods or themes?** Yes, it is designed to work alongside other browser extensions and user scripts.
