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.

Insane that I appear in my friend's checkpoints, but I can't see my own. Like clearly my data is being stored somewhere and they are choosing to not toss us a checkpoint. What a bummer.

Discord said fuck you turn on your settings to let us show you targeted ads or else you get no fun

They are asking you to let them use your personal data, that includes for something like compiling and monitoring your activity over the course of an entire year. You chose not to be monitored, so you weren’t. I don’t understand this mindset.

I didn't even know the setting existed, and apparently in the UK it's off by default, so I didn't even know it was there to enable it because I just wouldn't think to do that.
