Hide Discord Servers and Channels! Installs a button that hides/shows the Discord server list and autohides the channels list.
If you find this extension helpful, I would be grateful if you can buy me a coffee at https://ko-fi.com/patrickxchong. 🙏
Hide Discord Sidebar is a Chrome extension that minimizes the channels list into a small left sidebar when it is not in use and installs a button on the top right corner to hide/show the Discord server list. Users are able to customise the extension with the popup that shows when the extension button is clicked.
Appreciate feedback/support in the reviews! Or email me at [email protected]. Source code can be found at https://github.com/patrickxchong/hide-discord-sidebar.
IMPORTANT: This extension is only meant to work on Discord in Chromium based browsers. Tested and working on Windows, Mac and Linux versions of Brave Browser and Chrome.

- (2023-11-09) k h: I love this extension and have used it for a long time -- but all of a sudden, the "Hide Servers" button has started completely covering up the "Inbox" button, and I can no longer access my notifications unless I disable the extension. I don't know what happened! Developer, can you help? ㅠㅠㅠ
- (2023-11-04) V Lee: This extension saves lots of space on my computer, discord does not deserve to hold the whole screen! Been using this extension for years and I love it!
- (2023-10-28) Konrad: Absolute gem in the web store! Something that should be already implemented by Discord ages ago, yet here we are. Thanks
- (2023-10-25) TradeX: Hey it used to work perfectly, but since today it no longer works. Can you check
- (2023-09-21) Recist Geymer: Just fantastic, just great.
- (2023-08-25) Wijuu Anderson: id doesnt works sometimes
- (2023-08-10) Goldaer: Just downloaded it and it does what it promises. Only thing I noticed is that the "Chat" button disappears too, so I cannot comment on stuff while watching a friend's stream. I mainly wanted the channel list gone, because the chat already reduced the stream enough.
- (2023-04-11) Hoàng Trần: no bug so far!! the experience has been good!!! Great extension!! I love it!! kudos to the dev. Really helped me a lot!! Such a nice encounter!!
- (2023-02-19) anand kumar: amazing salute to dev
- (2023-02-19) suraj kumar: great
- (2023-01-30) André Fortes: LOVE IT
- (2023-01-27) ufosauna: Thank you!
- (2022-11-27) Son R: May i know why it need to read my browsing history now? But the function is good and working well.
- (2022-10-22) Vriendenvlag Aardig: It works! there is a button with: ''hide servers'' and you can hide the channels to!
- (2022-09-30) Josh Bier: Edit: I stand corrected. Thanks! --- This is great for saving screen real estate compared to the native app. I wish the channel autohide was configurable like the server list though. I personally prefer hiding servers all the time, but not channels (esp for servers I manage) and DM lists.
- (2022-09-04) Marius Tcacenco: At first time i thinked its a scam but then i see how it works i dont understand sense but its okay
- (2022-08-29) Scultronic: This extension helps a lot! having my screen split the side bar of the discord window was really annoying, this extension helped me a lot, Thanks!
- (2022-08-28) Elia_M: Thanks to the developer, Splendid extension does exactly what it says with a great UI aswell 10/10 extension
- (2022-08-08) Sam Edwards: Very good. But "Hide/Show Servers" needs to be a permanent toggle. I hate having to reopen the Server tab every time I switch servers.
- (2022-06-19) Steve D.: I don't usually write reviews, this'll be my first ever review. I'm writing this just cos this extension has been a lifesaver for me. Would be great if it includes an option for hiding the member list too
- (2022-04-16) Deadly Frank: good for when ur chatting with ur friends and/or staying in a single channel for a long period of time
- (2022-04-05) Louise: Fonctionne à merveille. Très utile et offre un vrai gain de place.
- (2022-03-25) Zane Levetin (Bailey): I dunno if it was me or not since I recently powerwashed my Chromebook and it seemed to stop working then, but it doesn't seem to be working anymore. And the icon seems to be grayed out. I tried the hard refresh and uninstalling and reinstalling it. Nothing.
- (2022-03-23) John B: Only works half of the time, so it gets half of the score.
- (2022-03-11) Jericho Joseph Tamayo: 3 stars for the meantime until I get help since I cannot see a hide server button at the top right of my discord. What should I do? (Updated this to 5 stars. I love this extension
- (2022-01-24) Ungrave アングレーブ: Doesn't get rid of the user list on the right side. Server/channel lists have useful information so I'm not sure why that would be the first thing to go.
- (2022-01-21) Unfortunate_Speget: This extension works great, love it. But i don't like how the "hide server" button covers the inbox button, can you maybe move it to the side?
- (2022-01-13) Jamie Lam: Awesome! Thank you for the quick fix!!
- (2022-01-13) J L: Excellent and well supported with fixes!
- (2022-01-11) Ijlal A: cant seem to find the button or make it work
- (2022-01-11) Emm1e 889: Sometimes it works, but sometimes it doesn't.
- (2021-12-23) Trader DUB: It's like you went inside my head and grabbed exactly what I was thinking. Well done. I can now see my actual computer monitor and the chat thread without a ton of wasted screen real estate. Thank you. I'll send you coffee funds, what's the venmo?
- (2021-11-24) 5xSo: i like this u should do more discord stuff!!! like free banner or anything
- (2021-11-15) Francis Serrano: So simple yet so much improvement! You are awesome! Thank you!
- (2021-10-17) Lazy Potato: I love this extension so much I hope you will continue to support it forever. Is it possible to add this extension to Safari as well? I would love to use this extension on my macbook but I'm forced to use Safari instead of chrome to conserve battery
- (2021-09-30) Felipe Bazignan: It just werks, but sadly it won't apply to Vivaldi Web Panels (any extension that targets specific tabs instead of the whole browser don't seem to play nice with web panels). Would love to see a change that could encompass this as it's my preferred method of accessing to chats (on say, whatsapp and whatnot)
- (2021-09-09) Bùi Minh Thành: Best Discord extension ever!
- (2021-07-30) Thayakorn Rakwetpakorn: Exactly what I'm look for.
- (2021-06-29) BoB Sam: It was kinda glitchy at times but it was great :)
- (2021-06-24) amirah serwah: I loved this so much! i never thought i would find something like this, this is very helpful because whenever i try to type i accidently (i dont know if i spelt that right lol) click my mouse and start typing when im actually typing where the search for friends/groups are i really loved this!
- (2021-06-15) ThatCashier: This is just... AMAZING! When I'm recording my YouTube videos, since I don't like my fans seeing my servers that I'm in, I can just hide them with this! This is just amazing! 5 stars!!
- (2021-06-10) 재 Euphoria: This works like a charm! I keep the discord app in split screen, and I couldn't make it smaller! I can now see my messages! Thanks!
- (2021-06-05) Yousef A: Does exactly what I expected. Highly recommended to make discord usable on the side of the screen.
- (2021-06-03) _MemoryCore_: It hides the sidebar in DMs. That's all. But does make things a little bigger.
- (2021-05-16) LumberJack: Esta increíble la extensión!. Me gustaría que pudieran adaptarlo para el OperaGX ya que el plugin no reconoce el discord integrado.
- (2021-04-18) Saiki Kimura: Best add-on :))
- (2021-04-17) Samuel Shard: Very cool, it works to hide the server side bar. It would be amazing if you could hide the people side bar as well. EDIT: Unfortunately it seems to have broken recently. Now there is a weird large grey area to the right of the server icons, wasting some of the screen and pushing things on the right side off of the screen. I'll have to disable it for now. Hope it gets fixed. DOUBLE EDIT: It's fixed! Thanks again! Amazing app.
- (2021-04-14) silver76: this helped me a lot because when I'm in split screen normally there's no space to type messages and now with the side bar gone I can finally use discord in split screen. the craters of this extension are very supportive when you have a bug and fix it quite quickly. over all a really good extension.
- (2021-04-10) Karma K.: There's currently a blank space next to the server column. It wasn't there before. I've refreshed and redownloaded the add-on. Is this a bug? Other than that, it's a great extension!
- (2021-04-08) Tran Duy: i'd like to use discord as a browser app so i need this extension, it works fine when its full screen but not when its small cuz there a big gap, please fix it and ill rate it 5 stars ;) heres a picture so you can see what i mean: https://imgur.com/a/GNcE0oW
