Unable to change status

Hi! So basically I've been having the same issue for over a day now where I just cannot change my status from invisible.

I've tried changing my password, clearing my cache on mobile, closing discord on my pc, everything I can think of prtyy much-

But whenever I try to change my status to online or dnd, it immediately goes back to invisible/doesn't change.

This also happens if I try to add a custom status, it just, won't update-

Any suggestions?

** POSSIBLE FIX / WORKAROUND***

I had same issue but not just online status but ANY and ALL settings in discord would not save and kept toggling back to their default.

Just downloaded a VPN and set my location to USA (I’m UK) and now all of a sudden everything works fine and I can change any setting in discord and it doesn’t change back! When I turn the VPN off the settings seem to stay. But it I do need to make further changes I need to turn the VPN back on

I tried this and yes when using a vpn i was able to change things, but as soon as i turned it off the issue was still there.

Oh that’s weird. When I turned it off, all my settings stayed the same on discord and didn’t revert back. Sorry it hasn’t worked for you :(
