Touch-Friendliness for Discord Extension


⚠ Google Chrome may tell you to remove this and other “Manifest V2” extensions as part of their attempt to force adoption of “Manifest V3”. This extension remains fully supported, but will remain on MV2 as long as possible to retain support for older Chromebooks and oppose other issues with MV3 highlighted by the EFF – https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2021/12/googles-manifest-v3-still-hurts-privacy-security-innovation.


By default, certain parts of Discord's interface, such as emoji reaction buttons, can be difficult to tap on a touch screen. This extension makes them larger and easier to touch.

The Discord team has improved a lot of things in the past few years, such as the “⋮“ menus on individual messages, so the changes with this extension are less drastic than they were at launch, but I will continue updating this extension until the entire interface is touch-friendly.
