Server list scrollbar
My server list has hit the point there it's actively forcing other servers and even the Home icon offscreen. When I have a mouse with a scroll wheel installed, the scroll wheel is how I manage to move the list up and down to move through the different servers or return to home. If I've run out of USB ports for my laptop however, this becomes impossible to do as a result of a lack of scrolling options. I feel a manual scrollbar for the Server list that could be clicked-and-dragged up and down would be in the best interest for everybody.

I have the same issue using the web client in Chrome.

I tried the navigate through server shortcut (Ctrl+Alt+Up/DownKey), but that only effected the channel list.

You can use your fingers and slide on both the left and right side of the touch pad on a laptop to scroll up and down.

there USED to be a server scrollbar. but the Discord went and deleted it, making it near impossible for people (like me) who use a Trackpad on their Laptop that doesn't have a built in scrolling function. it takes me about 10+ attempts to get the server list to scroll, and even when it does, sometimes it stops responding halfway through. BRING BACK THE SCROLLBAR!!

This is a needed feature, even with a mouse. It takes unnecessarily long to scroll down. It's not the worst, but it's just big enough that it gets annoying

When will Discord see this already and realize that this issue is not a joke?

uh-huh its super annoying.

It's also an issue in the standalone client (on Linux). This leads me to believe this is present in the interface code Discord reused between platforms. It most likely is intentional design, but I see no point. My scroll wheel isn't functioning, but any sane application with scrolling provides you with a scroll bar! What gives, Discord?
EDIT: I've realized it probably has to do with the mobile client. Mobile (touchscreen) interfaces don't need scroll bars for quite obvious reasons. However, there is a lot of code Discord doesn't reuse between mobile and desktop interfaces, so if this is true, they probably modified the code that is reused.

this is practically needed. i hate scrolling with a mouse because of a squeaky noise the scroll wheel makes, it's abominable. it'd also be frustrating for people that genuinely can't use a scroll wheel due to limited mobility.

I find it ridiculous that we've been asking for this for literal years and still have yet to get it.

I am literally unable to use my Discord properly because of a lack of a scrollbar in the server section. I can deal with the scrollbar being only seeable when I hover over it. I should be able to use my laptop without a mouse just to halfway use Discord properly. There is absolutely no reason for a severe lack of it. The Home and End buttons have stopped working almost entirely. I've sometimes taken 20 tries to get it to work.

I mainly use a drawing tablet pen to navigate my computer due to physical issues. My pen does not have a scroll wheel. I have to switch to my mouse every time I want to scroll my server list, which is causing me physical harm.

I literally don't have a scroll wheel right now so I definitely need this.

btw good luck with those physical issues Chira. Don't ever let them get you down.

That's not right, Chira, I'm so sorry. :(
I try to tweet Discord about this issue periodically, and so far there is NO RESPONSE WHATSOEVER. NOthing to even indicate that they're seeing my questions.1 -
Do developers even read this section?

The only way I am able to see the discs for servers which are neither in the top page-worth of discs nor in the bottom page-worth of discs is to press Ctrl-minus several times to zoom all the way out. At some point, the discs are all small enough that I can see the disc that represents the server I'm interested in. I can then click it and press Ctrl-zero to reset zoom.
If I hit the zoom limit and still cannot see the entire list of server discs, I need to right-click the Desktop, go to Display Options, and rotate the video output temporarily to Portrait, go find the server disc I'm looking for, then restore the video output rotation back to standard Landscape. It's pretty disruptive to background programs doing this, though, and often dislodges toolbars from window borders, etc.
Really, the server list frame needs to have a scrollbar just like the channel/chatlog/user frames have each got scrollbars. It seems to me most likely that the software testers were using a small number of test servers on large, high-resolution monitors and therefore never noticed that the server list frame neglects to spawn a scrollbar when its content exceeds its bounds.
