Remember, Discord has info such as your email and your phone number and if that got leaked to some of your viewers it could be a major headache.

Now if you do disable streamer mode, and you plan on streaming, then just be careful not to display any of your personal info on your stream. This is what it will look like when your streamer mode is turned off.

Streamer mode is available to everyone, regardless of which accounts they have linked. One last thing I want to mention is that you don’t need to link your Twitch, or any other account to your Discord in order to use streamer mode. Streamer mode can be a bit restrictive at times and so it is nice to be able to turn it on and off when you need to. The other reason is that it allows you to easily enable and disable streamer mode. Just hit your hotkeys and boom, streamer mode is turned on. This is helpful for two reasons: one you don’t have to go through all the steps above to enable streamer mode. The software I use for streaming is Streamlabs and if you want to know why you can check out my article here.Īnother thing I want to add about enabling streamer mode on Discord is that you can enable streamer with the use of hotkeys.Īs you can see in the image above, you can adjust your keybind settings to allow you to more easily enable and disable streamer mode by simply pressing a few keys. I recommend having that enabled as well just in case you ever forget.

If you stream using OBS or Xsplit then Discord also has a feature that will automatically enable streamer mode whenever you open either of those softwares. I would have that enabled just to be on the safe side. If you are streaming and open up your Discord it would be awful if you accidently screen shared some of your personal information. If you have an active Discord all those sounds and notifications could ruin your stream.Īlso, hiding your personal information is a no brainer. These are really just personal choices, but for me I would recommend enabling all of them. Now as you can see there are several other features that you can toggle on such as “Disable Sounds” and “Disable Notifications”.
