Running two instances of Discord is not too complicated (at least on Linux) and might work well to separate your professional and gaming accounts. You only have to be careful of invite links, which will open in the first Discord you run.

Be aware that Discord treats this as a fraud indicator - the reason Ripcord does not support Discord multi-account is that it puts you at higher risk for a ban

Funny how they are the most fraudulent of all involved.

I’d gladly share that info with my gaming friends, but on not on professional/work servers

It wouldn't be a problem, except that Discord takes over your fucking computer and doesn't let you sign into different accounts via private browser windows when you have the client running

Another problem with Discord is that its anti-spam measures are making it harder and harder to create an anonymous account

There's no point in having an anonymous Discord account if you have to use the same account for everything in your life. (Reddit and Facebook have the same problem as well)

What do you mean here? I have multiple discord accounts that I have logged in at once. One on the client, one in browser window, and another in a private window, working just fine.

Haven't made an account in a while, what has changed? Used to take only a couple minutes to get an account up and running.

It seems this has somehow changed. Historically, the web app connected to the webserver of the locally running client, so it was impossible to be logged into more than one account on a device with native app running.

They have a pretty extensive black list of email providers from what I can tell. Throwaway email accounts or services like Trashmail are pretty much completely blocked from what I can tell.

I have half a dozen accounts all registered to one email by just adding periods at various points in the address.

1. email@example.com

2. e.mail@example.com

3. em.ail@example.com

4. Etc etc

I work around this problem by running multiple Discord clients on different channels:

- Discord - Discord PTB - Discord Canary

The clients can all be open at the same time and can have different accounts logged in.

Same with having multiple accounts, not everyone wants to use their "main" account for all servers.
