Discord character limits and image sizes
This page lists every Discord text limit and upload size tracked by the tool, including the point where Discord truncates a post in the feed. Counts follow how Discord itself measures text, not raw string length.
Discord character limits
| Field | Limit | Visible in feed |
|---|---|---|
| Message | 2,000 | — |
| Message (Nitro) | 4,000 | — |
“Visible in feed” is roughly where the platform collapses the rest behind a “more” link. It is the practical limit for anything you need read.
Discord image and video sizes
| Placement | Dimensions | Ratio | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Server banner | 960 × 540 | 16:9 | Cover |
| Server icon | 512 × 512 | 1:1 | Profile |
