Text Terminal Client

GeigerCounter

There's times when I'm using a text-terminal only environment and have no desktop environment at all. ( And therefore no GUI, no way to launch Discord. ) During these times, I'd like to still be able to keep up conversing with my friends. I also would like a client with a smaller memory footprint. Would you be willing to greenlight and support a text only Discord client? I can help develop it if need be. It'd be nice to have this as an official client for communicating on the Discord network since most of my friends aren't willing to use multiple chat services at once or jump to Jabber or IRC. It would also help me to be able to monitor my servers during times when I do not have full capacity to use Discord's normal client or the browser mode. Personally I'd also use this just for personal usage. Images could be displayed as links in the text client. Naturally voice and video call wouldn't be supported, but I wouldn't need or want it in these circumstances. As it stands, I have to resort to a relay bot, which I consider to be an inelegant solution. The amount of overhead for such a client should be minimal and if you allowed custom clients, a plethora would already exist.

    I am liking discord less and less. There is a server that I am active in that I may try to convince to move to a different platform (with a bridge bot of course).

    I hate doing :+1:'s, but here it actually does make sense to raise the imporance of this. There are open source versions out there but I have been told that people fear getting banned when using/developing them? In official statement on that matter would certainly help at least. :-)

    it'd be extremely nice to have a terminal client of discord that doesn't take up much system resources and isn't against the TOS

    actually, can discord just let us use modded/custom discord clients? please?

    Big +1 from me, I'm a terminal nerd, I can think clearer and operate more efficiently when all I have to worry about is text. A TUI for Discord would be a godsend.

    bump. I have Arch Linux that boot into CLI mode by default (although it have sway (Wayland compositor) installed). Yes I'm mod at 3 server so I need to open discord quickly without starting wayland compositor and discord in terminal interface is better choice for quick startup

    I would try to make a client myself but it's against the ToS and my programming ability isn't great.
