Add option to make Connections “Friends-Only”
This is an important privacy feature for anyone who's been in public VC's where some unsavory figures have found their YouTube, Facebook, Twitch, Spotify, etc and used it to harass them. I've been the target of unwanted harassment because of my connections on discord and I'd like it to only be visible to my friends as these are people I want to see my connections. I find that most people do not need to see my connections unless they know me. But my situation isn't true for everyone, for example, popular YouTubers or important people might want their connections public. This is why I ask that you add an option to make connections only visible to friends.

Havier. Yes, there are ways to report harassment but with all the harassment I get I'd like to be able to be proactive. Also, it's proper to have good privacy features nowadays. On almost every platform I've used I have the option to hide things like my age or town I grew up in from people I don't want to see, I think most people would consider their social media accounts private unless they are an online personality. And most apps let you make certain things visible to just friends. This would be a great feature to just have in general, and one more thing Discord ALSO has in comparison to their competitors.

I feel like it would be a very great option to add.
Like a visibility option : "friends-only", "everyone", "hidden"
It might be a great security feature ! I agree ;)

+1 I would also like to see this feature since I like to make my connections known to people I've friended but not through massive guilds.

Unwanted harassment can simply be reported directly to the Trust and Safety team or by simply blocking them. That's what this button is for after all.
