Yeah you're definitely not alone in that, discord links frequently act as downloads for me too and I'm also using the Android awful app. It isn't 100% of the time though, not sure why

Does a little link icon not appear for y'all in the upper left hand corner when the videos are paused?

This is how it looks like in the app. Clicking the link automatically downloads the video to my phone.



This is how it looks like in browser. I can right-click and copy the link url, which I can then share, but if I open a new tab, paste the URL and hit enter, it will in fact download the video to my hard drive as well. At least I can watch the video embedded, but I have no way of sharing it in a way that'll just open it in brower for other people, except for uploading it to imgur.

I'm on android, I'm not using the awful app, and mine looks like your second screenshot.

You may not have mp4 embedding turned on in the Awful app. Go to settings -> posts -> embedding and make sure "other" is enabled under "video". Of course this won't help you share anything but at least you won't have to download the video on your phone.

That looks unlike my Android awful app. Mine has a rectangle placeholder, not a text URL. It can play embedded or get a link to share.

Is it possible you are on the old app that's not maintained? Or are you behind the latest app updates?


Probably the setting that person said. Once the content is embedded, there is a share link icon in the top left of the embedded video.

No idea what the dark theme guy is on about

Anyway I tried the embedding thing and it's nice that now I can play the discord vids embedded in the app! Sadly, now I don't know if it's a discord or imgur video, so when I click the link 🔗 button, it's now a gamble if it downloads or not lol

I'll drop it now because I don't think there IS a solution unless I want to yell at the discord devs, I just wanted to know if I'm the only one bothered.

The link options menu that appears when you tap the share button shows you the url and allows you to share it. Settings > Posts > Always open links > set it to off, which is the default. The problem you're having is why the link options menu exists.

Last I checked whites are still the largest single racial group, but they don't outnumber all other groups combined.

Thanks a lot! I do have an imgur account, so I would have done the re-up to share the link, but it's a massive hassle and I was wondering if I'm really the only one with this problem. Much like everyone here, I like to share fun memes, and discord links make it way harder to even watch them (on mobile).

I'm not saying "hey Discord linkers, rehost all of your videos on imgur" because this is just meant to be a "lol at this, c&p" thread and that's fine, but maybe if you weren't aware of an issue and really want everyone to see your funny vid, you'd like to know that often I at least skip your links because it's super annoying for me, and that's me missing out on your great content, and that's sad!!!

My beef is with twitter links to articles. I have to click 4 loving times, and give twitter a bunch of traffic, just to read an article on some other site.

Stop giving twitter so much traffic, dammit, you are putting money in the pockets of nazi enablers.
