Discord character limit

A Discord message can have up to 1,980 characters. Discord allows 2,000; PostDelegate keeps a small margin and sends up to 1,980.

Each Unicode character counts as 1. Some emoji are built from several characters, such as a skin tone or a family, and count as more.

Do emoji and links count on Discord?

Each Unicode character counts as 1. Some emoji are built from several characters, such as a skin tone or a family, and count as more.

Is my text saved anywhere?

No. The count runs in your browser. Nothing you type is sent or stored.

Is this the exact count the platform uses?

It follows the counting rule above and is a close planning estimate. Discord checks the final post itself.

Or check every network at once with the caption checker, and see all free tools.
