Vencord

Vencord is a client modification for Discord, the messaging platform. It works by altering the Discord application on your device to add features, visual changes, and settings that Discord does not provide by default. The project calls itself the cutest Discord client mod.

Installing Vencord adds access to more than 100 built-in plugins covering a range of Discord behavior. It also blocks Discord's analytics and crash reporting by default, with no telemetry of its own. You can apply custom CSS to change the look of Discord's interface, including themes originally made for BetterDiscord, another client mod. A settings sync option keeps your plugin configuration consistent across multiple devices or app installations.

Vencord works on Discord's stable release, Canary, and PTB channels. It runs as a desktop modification on Windows, macOS, and Linux, and can also run inside a browser as an extension or UserScript. This means you can use it without installing the desktop client if you prefer the web version of Discord. According to the README, broken plugins are typically fixed within 12 hours when Discord updates cause them to stop working.

Installation and uninstallation are handled through the project's installer, linked from the vencord.dev site. The README does not walk through installation steps directly beyond pointing to that link.

The README includes a disclosure that using client modifications violates Discord's Terms of Service. It notes that Discord has historically taken no action against users for this and that no built-in plugins behave abusively, but it advises that anyone whose account is important to them should avoid client modifications entirely, not just Vencord.
