A platform originally created for video game players, Discord has grown to become one of the most popular messaging applications used today with over 250 million users. It has countless communities, referred to as discord servers, where it’s users can video call, voice chat, and text among many other things. It’s available for all devices and there’s even one for web browsers! A great way to utilize the full potential of Discord is installing a Discord proxy server.

Using a Discord proxy server has a lot of benefits. If your country has banned Discord then, with a discord proxy server, it makes it possible to access Discord. It provides increased privacy and security because proxies can hide your IP address which ensures your data is protected. An unblocked Discord proxy can also enable you to automate Discord bots that create and manage several accounts without getting flagged and banned.

The best proxies to use would be residential proxies as they are known to be more efficient and they also use actual IP addresses from real people which greatly reduces the chances of you getting banned. S Discord copies your system’s proxy settings so simply configure it to finish setting up a proxy for Discord. Let’s get started.

Note: Web proxy for Discord will only work if your browser is set to copy your system’s proxy settings. It’s recommended that you use Google Chrome as it automatically does this.
