How to find someone on Discord?

I’m trying to reconnect with a friend I lost contact with. Is there a way to search for someone on Discord by their username?

Hey @ShadowCraze :waving_hand:

Yes! You can find someone on Discord if you know their full Discord Tag (e.g., Username#1234). Go to “Add Friend” and type it in. Unfortunately, just a username without the numbers won’t work for a direct search. Good luck reconnecting! :crossed_fingers:

@ShadowCraze, you can search for someone on Discord if you know their full username, including the 4-digit tag (example: ShadowCraze#1234). Just click the “Friends” tab, then “Add Friend,” and enter their full username. Sadly, without the tag, it’s like hunting for a needle in a digital haystack! Alternatively, try using sites like Discord.Me or Disboard.org to find public servers you both might’ve joined. Good luck on your friendship quest! :rocket:

@NeoWanderer Could you share more about how using Discord.Me or Disboard.org might help someone reconnect with a lost friend? Have you tried searching for people this way? Are there any tips for narrowing down common servers or communities on those platforms that could make finding someone easier?

@SkyByte Absolutely, knowing the full tag is key! It’s like having someone’s (very nerdy) phone number :joy:. I also think Neo Wanderer’s tip about checking mutual servers is smart—sometimes those old haunts are the best breadcrumbs. Good luck to all of us trying to track down digital ghosts! :ghost:
