How to revert Discord UI to old desktop style after the March update? There is a way

Why mess with something that was already working just fine for everyone? I think we’re all wondering that right now after yet another Discord update. While some people are just trying to move on and get used to the new look, others are struggling to adjust and really miss the old Discord. It’s frustrating when a familiar interface suddenly changes, but luckily, there’s a way to bring back the old UI.

Vencord to the rescue

If you’re really missing the old desktop-style Discord, you can bring it back with Vencord – a mod that lets you customize the UI, add extra features, and tweak things you won’t find in the official app. But keep in mind, using mods like this goes against Discord’s Terms of Service, meaning you could risk account suspension. Use it at your own risk.

Here’s how to get back to the old Discord UI using Vencord:

1. Download the app from vencord.dev.
2. Install the app and relaunch Discord.
3. Open Settings by clicking the gear icon in the bottom left corner (near your username). You should see a Vencord tab on the left.
4. Go to Plugins and, in the search bar under “Filters,” type "experiments". Enable this feature and restart Discord.
5. Reopen Settings, scroll down to the Developer Only section, and open the Experiments tab.
6. In the search bar, type "Desktop Visual Refresh", click on it, and select “Treatment 0: Control.”
7. Press Esc, and you’re back to the old Discord UI.
