Discord photo collection posting/ grouping for organized posts/ Commenting, and multiple photo selection on iOS

Discord service request / UI
Hello I would like to suggest a feature for Discord, to help organize photos by adding a collection folder one can post into the chat, so if someone wants to share multiple photographs in a collection, they will not have to scroll long and far and lose their place. In essence it would be a way in which one can contain various media like pictures together. Maybe individual commenting features per picture or file, but that’s not necessary. But I feel it will drastically help if within channels there was some way to make folder/ collections so within a folder/ collection tab you can see all the posted folders and or collections created by people in the server. To easily navigate back to them once posted! So they wouldn’t be as hard to locate by scrolling through many numerous texts to find a group of photos posted. And it would save comment space for people to discuss.
Maybe a comment feature would be nice per picture in the collection, but not an overlay, maybe a side bar or info icon on the thumbnail to click and comment upon it. But once you click the photo you only see the photo and no comments on it atall in the view mode.

I believe this would be quite beneficial for numerous people that want to display slides or photographic information. Good for visual artists, designers and companies using the platform as well for planning and organizing. Especially if the info button next to the picture can explain and help create dialogue for various designs and for brainstorming per-picture.

Also I would like to suggest that there will be a way to select multiple photos from the iOS/ iPhone/ iPad by check mark selection of the photos, so photos don’t need to be selected one by one and it automatically exciting out and lose your spot in the photo gallery. If that’s possible to control to simplify the process of photo selection and navigation. Without the need to exit and enter the gallery multiple times to select multiple files.

Thank you for reading.

I have included some simple ideas explaining the idea and concept , it’s quite a basic idea, but I think it will help organize images to save space within chats where multiple pictures are needed.

Sincerely,
Seryn Kelley (plopstic on discord)

This could be taken even further by allowing people to see which galleries have been uploaded by a person on different servers. Allowing them to easily look everything up

I’ve been searching for this exact feature! It is very necessary. I use discord for an activism group and we would significantly benefit from this addition. It would make the chats look and feel much more organized, help reduce confusion among members, and reduce time wasted searching. Great idea and I need it, please and thank you!! :)
