Why Discord Updates Matter

Your Discord community is your most engaged user base. They chose to join your server because they care about your product. Keeping them updated on product changes builds trust, drives feature adoption, and creates advocates.

Setting Up Your Discord for Updates

1. Create Dedicated Channels

  • #announcements - Major releases and news (read-only)
  • #changelog - All updates, big and small
  • #roadmap - What's coming next
  • #feedback - User suggestions and discussion

2. Establish Update Cadence

Consistency matters. Choose a schedule and stick to it:

  • Weekly - Best for active development
  • Bi-weekly - Good balance for most products
  • Monthly - Works for stable products

3. Format for Engagement

Good Discord updates are:

  • Scannable - Use headers and bullet points
  • Visual - Include screenshots or GIFs when relevant
  • Actionable - Tell users how to try new features
  • Conversational - Match Discord's casual tone
