Modded discord clients have been around for quite while. But indeed, the threat of being banned deters most people and if just a handful of people use a modded client discord doesnt care probably.

There are even people like me, who have Nitro and still use modded client for different reasons.

Being able to delete your previous messages in bulk is a very good reason for example,

it's borderline (or completely ?) illegal to threaten users to ban them if they choose to use their right to mass-delete their previous messages.

I use a modded client to remove the minimum window size limit.
