Discord Status Explained, Meaning of Idle
Discord is a social messaging platform based on Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP). It was developed by Discord Inc and was initially released in May 2015. It is available for multiple operating system platforms including Windows, Android, Mac, Linux, iOS, and iPadOS. Streamers use this platform to interact with their audience while doing other live activities (like playing e-game). One of the key features that made Discord popular is that it is available in 30 languages.
Different Status in Discord
As mentioned in the image above, Discord allows its users to set the status of their profile from 4 pre-set options (Online, Idle, Do Not Disturb, and Invisible) and 1 custom option where the user can set their status by their own choice. In this article, we are going to explain the most misjudged pre-set option ‘Idle’.
The basic meaning of Idle in Discord is that the user has logged into their profile either on Windows or Mobile but isn’t active. The Idle status symbol is inspired by a half-moon shape and is yellow in color.
According to some websites, another meaning of Idle is just like the sleep status on a PC. Discord automatically set this status when the user doesn’t show any active movement for a period of time.
Is there any benefit of ‘Idle’ status in Discord?
Yes, when you’re on Idle mode, you can still receive the notifications unlike DND (Do Not Disturb) or Invisible option where you don’t.
