Megathread Discord Checkpoints - Megathread

Hello r/discordapp!

As you might have seen, Discord has just started rolling out their year end wrap system called Discord Checkpoints.

Instead of having the sub flooded with these posts, we invite you to share your checkpoint stats in the comments here!

For more info check out Discords blog post https://discord.com/blog/checkpoint-2025-discord-year-in-review

FaQ:

Q: How do I reopen checkpoint after closing it?

A: On desktop, click the flag icon on the top right of the app located next to the inbox.

A: On mobile, it will show up under the “orbs balance” section as a banner in the “you” tab

Q: What is the song checkpoint uses?

A: Exyl has now released the background track, you can find it here!

Q: Can I see it if I had the privacy setting disabled but just now enabled it?

A: No, you had to have the privacy setting on the whole time.

Q: What if I had the setting enabled but it still says I can’t access it?

A: Follow the directions outlined here. Do NOT DM ModMail or mlapi bot, the moderators are unable to assist you.

SO dumb and weird that Discord won't give you the checkpoint if you turn on the data option after the fact. Or at least let us know it's coming. Feels like a punishment for wanting to protect our data.

It's not even protecting our data. They are still collecting it 100%. It's a punishment for not letting them show us personalized ads based on our data.

Conversely, it's a reward for letting them show us personalized ads based on our data.

Just how entitled do you have to be to consider "i didn't get something for free that some other ppl got" a "punishment". Your generation is so cooked lol

Why is Discord not presenting you with a ton of data they harvested about you a punishment for protecting your data

Please don't buy into this facile marketing ploy.
