Need to quickly delete a lot of messages on Discord? Here’s how to do it.
Dan SaltmanSo, for one reason or another you need to get rid of all your Discord messages in a hurry, but how? Sure, you can delete them line by line, DM by DM, but that’s going to take forever. If you’re like me, or millions of other Discord users, you likely have a ton of history in both chat and DM and don’t want to spend hours manually deleting old chats.
OK, so then what are the other options you ask? You already know I have the answer for you, don’t you? You may have guessed already, but deleting things in mass and doing it quickly is sort of our thing here at redact.dev. And doing so on the Discord platform is, as you may have also guessed, is also one of our specialties.
Let’s go over some of the different features our Discord deletion software has to offer.
