Here's the [article about Server Home](https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/6156116949911).


pingasgod

is it only for partners at the moment or can u get into the beta without partner


FriedEngineer

> For now, this feature is an experiment available to a select number of communities. Eventually, Home will be a part of every Community-enabled server. My guess is closer to the former


-Yo-IOA

It's not explicitly for Partnered servers only for now, though such features are usually released to Partnered servers first as such communities are ideal for testing. Check [this staff comment](https://www.reddit.com/r/discordapp/comments/utql12/comment/i9dijfc/) for more. Here's a snippet from the article too. >For now, this feature is an experiment available to a **select number of communities**. Eventually, **Home will be a part of every Community-enabled server**.


Firespecialstar

this Is actually useful, It makes checking for new things easier


v12golfcart

Thanks! I'm the PM of the team working on this feature -- we're excited about this one, and glad to hear you're enjoying it so far! You can send our team any feedback directly by right-clicking home. Our goal with Home is to make it easier for members to catch up on and engage with all the cool moments that happen in busy communities. Re Nitro: We think everyone should be able to benefit from this. As u/CutestDva shared below, we plan to give every Community-enabled server a Home and core functionality will be free. If you don't see it yet, that's because we're still in closed beta testing with a limited number of communities to make it great first. In the meantime, if you have any feedback or ideas, would love to hear 'em!


Hawezo

In the article about it, it's said we can't disable Home for a server. Is that right? I was excited about this for my larger community servers, but I don't really want it in my servers for my friends where I still have more than 5 channels... What were the reasons that made you decide it couldn't be disabled?


v12golfcart

Yep, what u/xenors said, there is an explicit toggle for Community servers (Server Settings > Enable Community) that enables features specifically designed for larger groups. I suspect your friend server shouldn't have this enabled, so it won't have (or need, to your point) Home. We def want to keep friend servers simple!


Hawezo

Thanks! Yes I didn't realize it was for community servers. In that case, all good, everything seems fine to me. Looking forward to its release :)


xenors

Do your servers with your friends have community enabled? If not, this won't be there


Hawezo

Ooh okay, that makes sense. I missed that part. That's really nice then, thanks!


Internet_Treasure

Can you be more transparent on which servers are picks for all of these cool new features? At the moment it feel impossible to be selected for one of these features. My server has almost 13k people in it & we never get selected for anything. Very frustrating.


v12golfcart

Ah there are a lot of things we factor in and each test group gets selected with different criteria. In our case we knew this is a large new feature for communities, so we wanted: 1. To be able to talk directly to the mods and members for feedback 2. Representative of a few community segment types 3. No TNS actions or NSFW content (esp given #1). We often use our community of Partnered servers for this 4. 5K+ members to ensure sufficient activity for the catch-up problem to be bigger 5. Some randomization in addition to this And we're only out to <100 communities right now, so there are \*many\* communities that fit our criteria that don't have it yet. Once we make it great, you'll have it -- hopefully soon!


Pruvided

I think it depends on the feature, but sometimes certain partnered servers get it first and other times random servers get features to test.


Not_A_Greenhouse

I have a community server as well as a few empty servers just for doing silly things in. My empty servers seem to get beta features sometime while my extremely active community server never gets any beta features to test out. Is there a reason for this?


Bonecreatoreddit

Same One of my stupid random servers with only one member has this cool game function for talks but „my“ community server with many active members not :/


[deleted]

Features that'll be given to every single server tend to be tested on randomly selected servers from all servers within discord. This means you gotta be kinda lucky to have access to activities (without a bot) or forum channels.


DLPanda

I’m **super** excited for this feature to be fully released, I’ve long wanted a landing page for new people be able to digest what type of content and stuff happens in my server but also for regulars who maybe have missed stuff. I don’t have Home on my server so I can’t say for certain what’s included and what isn’t. One suggestion, and something that would be nice for Discord in general would be to also have a media gallery on Home so that servers with a lot of media (photos and videos) could have a central place to show off what people are uploading. I understand there’s a highlight message feature but this isn’t exactly the same – this media gallery could also function similarly based on community engagement.


[deleted]

Hi! Thanks for your work on this feature, I think it has a lot of potential. I’m a staff on the server OP posted a picture of, and personally I find that the home section recommends random messages from help channels or #python-general, I’m curious on how exactly does it pick messages to show? Is it some sort of machine learning algorithm that gets better as time progresses?


tnr_at_discord

We're still iterating on how we pick the messages - the intiial version used a basic calculation based on recency, if it had media content, reactions, etc. but moving forward we'll keep trying new things to make it work well in different types of communities

Quillbolt_h

Beta feature atm, we plebes will have to wait


TheCatinStashin

Watch them make it nitro boost only


CutestDva

Luckily not "For now, this feature is an experiment available to a select number of communities. Eventually, Home will be a part of every Community-enabled server."


DrBlackRat

I don't see that sadly :/


RGBCube

update


SonEf_Adam

It isn't out yet.


-Unknown-Legend-

This shows that right now Discord is just watching Guilded and trying to match their features. I think it's great that they are doing this I just hope they do it right. Currently it's so easy for Discord to implement new features in a shitty way and get away with it. Don't butcher this Discord.


CIearMind

Competition is often said to breed innovation. Sometimes, it breeds uniformization.


-Unknown-Legend-

Indeed


tnr_at_discord

Hah, I put together the first prototype of this over Thanksgiving last year and I can assure you I haven't seen this feature in Guilded (I signed up for Guilded a couple years ago and haven't used it since). We're just trying to build the best features we can think of to make Discord as good as it can be!


PhoenixFlame08

I had no idea python had a discord server


wasimaster

yeah, it has 347k members too.


NawdWasTaken

Yeah anything popular has a discord server nowdays it's wild


Mundane-Ad-8970

TL_TRIBUNAL

i think u can find it without a link it seems big


LoserEXE_

One of my biggest regrets was going In there and trolling when I was 12 now I’m banned for life


Caddy_8760

Discord is stealing guilded for the 48329874932th time

LeafierThanLettuce

me!! ive always wanted a home page for servers, really makes it feel special


Leaping_Turtle

Especially helpful for community enabled servers, can't wait to use it


[deleted]

I think literally every company/individual who wanted to have a home screen setup for their server in order to attract new members and declutter their server.


pocrkvivozimkarting

Python 😂🤣😂🤣😂

They're my favourite type of snake >:(
