Joining a Discord server can be a great way to meet people who share your interests.
But if the conversation isn't what you're expecting, or you just aren't vibing with the server for some other reason, you do have the option to leave that server.
Leaving a Discord server will remove your name from its member list, and disable any role that you held in the server. You won't receive any more messages or notifications from the server either.
The only exception to this is if you're the owner of the server — in this case, you'll need to transfer ownership of the server before you leave.
Here's how to leave a Discord server using the desktop app for Mac and PC or the mobile app for iPhone and Android devices.
You'll be able to rejoin a server you left at any time.
