Enable Light Mode in Discord on Desktop and the Web
The steps to enable Discord’s light mode in the desktop app and the browser version are the same.
Start by launching Discord on your computer. At the bottom-left corner of Discord, next to your username, click “User Settings” (a gear icon).
You will see a “User Settings” sidebar on the left. In this sidebar, from the “App Settings” section, select “Appearance.”
On the right pane, in the “Theme” section, click “Light” to enable light mode.
Tip: In the future, to switch back to dark mode, toggle on the “Dark” option.
And Discord will immediately turn light, as you can see below.
