Use Invite Link Without Discord Account

Artemis

Since you've upped the go to live streaming to 50 participants, this would be a great addition to hosting webinars and online presentations. Most people that I'd need to host these things to don't have discord accounts, and wouldn't want to bother creating discord accounts. If they could temporarily join a server with just the server invite, I could host online courses for various people with minimum impact on their end, all they need to do is click the link and bam!, they're in the channel or server.

As a side note, from a business perspective, this would mean competing directly with gotomeeting or lifesize or polycom, etc. I've used all of these solutions and let me tell you... at the end of the day I'd still prefer to use Discord for my webinars because the quality and customization is just way better. So much so that I'd even be willing to pay extra for that.

    You can actually already do that.

    Just create an invite link, and give it to anyone. After opening it on their web browser, they will get asked to provide a username, agree to the ToS... and that's it.

    The in-browser app will open with a pop-up asking for an email and password in order to save everything, but you can just click it away and start doing mostly everything like a regular registered user.

    You can test that yourself by generating an invite link and opening it in incognito mode on your browser.

    Unfortunately that is not accurate. You have to enter a name (and it must be unique), then verify your humanity by clicking on pictures, then lastly enter your age.

    Unfortunately, it appears accounts are required to join a discord chat.
