Discord's PC system resource-hogging days are numbered — a new 'Game Mode' is coming to reduce CPU…
Discord is developing a new 'Game Mode' feature aimed at reducing its CPU and GPU consumption while users are gaming. This feature appears to be an automatic toggle for the existing 'Reduced Motion' setting, intended to disable animations and effects when a game is detected, potentially improving in-game performance. However, it remains unclear if this will address Discord's significant RAM usage or improve resource consumption during screen sharing.
