GooseMod
GooseMod, sometimes referred to as GM, was a client mod created by Ducko. It was designed to be a lightweight and easy-to-use[1] modification for Discord.

It differentiated itself from other client mods at the time by featuring a built-in store for plugins and themes similar to the one found today in Vencord.
Topaz
Later in GooseMod's Lifespan came the addition of the experimental Topaz[2]. It allowed the user to install and use plugins and themes from other client mods instead of those specifically written for GooseMod.
It aimed to be "compatible"[2] with the most popular client mods such as BetterDiscord, Powercord and Cumcord.
Topaz was discontinued alongside Goosemod while still being in an Alpha state[3].
History
It was created on the 17th of September 2020[4] and discontinued on the 27th of September 2022[5] after the Discord SWC Change.
