What Happens After Hitting the Unfriend Button on Discord?

After tapping the “Remove Friend” button, Discord will remove the person from the Friend list. They won’t get a notification of the removal.

However, the tap doesn’t stop them from sending Direct Messages to your inbox unless you disable the Direct Message button.

Each time they try sending you a Direct Message, they’ll see a notification telling them Discord can’t deliver their message. They will figure out that you unfriended them in the long run. 

However, they can send a Direct Message to you if you share a mutual server and you’ve not disabled your Direct Message button. 

Also, they cannot add you back if you disable the friend request button, regardless of whether you share a mutual server or not. 

Concluding Thoughts

Discord lets you unfriend someone if the friendship is irreparable. You can unfriend the user from the message section, launch screen, or your mutual server.

The unfriend button prevents them from taping and sending you a Direct Message or adding your back if you disabled the send request button.
