This method requires use of the Vencord add-on.

  • In Discord user settings under Vencord, find the Plugins tab.

  • Search for the ‘Experiments’ plugin, enable and restart discord when prompted.

  • When Discord restarts you should find a new Experiments tab under Developer Only.

  • In the the Experiments tab to search for ‘Desktop Visual Refresh’, Select it and in the Bucket Override drop down menu set it to Not Eligible.

This will revert you back to the former desktop layout and might fix issues experienced while using Vencord Themes. It fixed it on my end while using DTM-08 but I’ve heard others say their themes are still broken.

Also no telling how long this will keep working for and Discord will probably disable this workaround in a future update.

    so what did change, aside from server icons becoming rounded squares instead of circles?

      the only change I noticed is that it’s a bit more compact and you can now use a totally Black theme and a lighter gray in addition to the others you could already use

      Mostly making Ui elements smaller while increasing blank space… Also moved around some elements and hid others behind menus were they are standalone buttons before.

      Only positive about the new update imo is adding a pure black dark mode for none nitro users.

      Also as I said in my post I was already using a theme which got broken by the update.
