Need a digital declutter? Maybe you're cutting back on screen time or just no longer using Discord. Whatever the reason, deleting your Discord account is a pretty straightforward process. But before you take the plunge, remember this action is **permanent**. There's no going back!
Ready? Here's how:
1. **Log In:** Head to the Discord website or open the desktop app and log in to the account you want to delete.
2. **User Settings:** Click the gear icon next to your username (bottom left) to access 'User Settings'.
3. **Delete Account:** Scroll down to the bottom of the left-hand menu. You'll see two options: 'Disable Account' and 'Delete Account'. Choose 'Delete Account'.
4. **Verification:** Discord will ask you to enter your password and potentially a two-factor authentication code. This is to ensure you're really you!
5. **Confirm:** Click the final 'Delete Account' button. You're done!
Your account will be scheduled for deletion, and after a short period, it will be gone forever. Just remember to inform your friends and servers beforehand, so they know you're leaving! Consider disabling your account temporarily if you are not entirely sure!
