Hiding friends on Discord can be approached in a couple of different ways. Here are a few methods you can use:
1. Set Your Status to "Invisible":
- Click on your profile picture in the bottom left corner of Discord.
- Select the "Invisible" status. This will make you appear offline to your friends and other users, effectively hiding your online status.
2. Adjust Privacy Settings:
- Go to User Settings by clicking on the gear icon at the bottom left next to your username.
- Navigate to the Privacy & Safety tab.
- Here, you can adjust settings related to who can send you friend requests, direct messages, and other interactions, but there isn't a direct option to hide friends specifically.
3. Manage Friends List:
- You can't directly "hide" friends on Discord, but you can manage your friends list by removing people or blocking them if necessary.
- To remove a friend, go to your Friends List, right-click on their name, and select "Remove Friend."
- To block someone, right-click on their name and select "Block." This will prevent them from contacting you.
4. Use Server Features:
- If you're in a server, you can control who can see your presence and activities by adjusting your server settings or roles if you have administrative permissions.
5. Create a Private Server:
- If you want to interact privately with a select group without others seeing your activity, consider creating a private server and inviting only specific friends.
Conclusion
While you can't completely hide friends on Discord, using the above methods can help you manage your visibility and interactions more effectively. Use the "Invisible" status for a quick solution.
