History

BetterDiscord was created by Jiiks in August 2015.

Jiiks started a rewrite under the v2 branch on November 6, 2016, which became dormant on May 17. 2017. On January 10, 2018, another rewrite was started as a fork under the JsSucks organization[1], referred to as BetterDiscordv2.

In October 2018, Zerebos forked the original repository to keep it maintained while BetterDiscordv2 was in development, rebranding it as BandagedBD on February 5, 2018[2].

BetterDiscordv2 goes dormant on March 16, 2019[3].

BandagedBD would begin a rewrite on March 20, 2020[4], which has become the current code base since. BandagedBD would acquire the BetterDiscord name on July 26, 2020[5].

The original BetterDiscordApp repository was finally archived on August 2, 2022.
