You heard that right. This part of our blog will explain how and why you should use proxies with Discord, which is your best Web-based chat and video service.
Aside from the obvious reasons to use proxies with Discord, like getting around geo-bans and managing bots, we will also answer the most common questions, such as: What are the best proxies for Discord in general?
Hold on tight, and enjoy the ride as we learn how to use cutting edge proxies with one of the most popular online messaging services.
Why Should You Use a Proxy for Discord?
First, let's talk about why we need to use a proxy with Discord.
Get around Geo-Restrictions
First and foremost, users like to use proxies to get around any geo-blocks that might be in place. Due to the fact that your proxy can change your computer's original banned or limited IP address, you will be able to use Discord even if it is against the law in your area.
Servers with limited access
Another clear use for proxies is to get into sites that are normally locked down. When you use a proxy, you get an IP address that is whitelisted for these types of servers. This lets you connect to the most popular server sites.
Use More Than One Account
It is also necessary to use Discord bots to keep more than one account active on the system. For this to work, Discord bots are used. Each bot needs its own IP address, which is provided by a proxy.
Boost your safety
Using proxies will also add an extra layer of security that will stop hackers from getting into your system and installing malware.
If you look at all of these situations together, you can see that using proxies with Discord is completely fine.
How do proxies work in Discord?
We'll talk more about how to set up a proxy for Discord later, but for now, your Discord will be ready to go with a new IP address, so you can go about your day.
For example, you need a proxy to connect to a computer that you wouldn't be able to reach any other way. Most likely, you will need to add a home IP address (or, less often, a corporate proxy) to your machine so the server can see that you are a real person.
A static home proxy is what can make you look like a real person on the web, which you probably already know. However, any computer you try to connect to will think that you are just a regular person from that area trying to connect to the server. That easy.
So, what does this kind of proxy do? That's what your service company does. You are given an IP address that you can use to connect to the provider, and you will be sent to an address that has an IP address that was obtained in an honest way. Through that IP, you can "lease" access from that person and get into Discord.
How To Use Proxy Servers With Discord
You need to buy an IP address or several from the proxy service in order to learn how to use your Discord proxy correctly. You will be able to get to your homepage as soon as the payment goes through because this process is very easy for you.
You can see the IPs (proxies) that are available to you from the website. You can then copy and paste the proxy details into your machine to use the proxy. The way this process works changes from system to system. Our team has put together a complete step-by-step guide with all the necessary settings for both Windows and MacOS users. Once this is done, you can start Discord for the IP changes to take place.
For scraping, we can also help you with a wide range of other proxies from our network, such as server rotation proxies (on SOCKS5 and HTTP(S) protocols) and many more.
There is no need to worry about getting help with setting up and using the proxy. Our experienced tech support and account managers are always here to help.
Have fun on Discord!
