From the dropdown, choose Leave Server.
A pop-up will appear asking if you’re sure. Click Leave Server again to confirm.
Once you do this, the server will disappear from your sidebar. You won’t get any more messages or notifications from it unless you join again.

Click on the server name on the top to open a menu.
Scroll down in the menu and tap Leave Server.

If you’re the server owner, you cannot leave it unless you either transfer ownership to someone else or delete the server. Here’s how you can do both:
Open the server and click on the server name.

Click the three dots next to their name and choose Transfer Ownership.
Confirm your choice.
Now you become a regular member and can leave the server as usual.

Discord doesn’t send notification when someone leaves a server. However, your name will disappear from the member list, and active users may notice that you're gone. Here are a few tips to leave quietly:
Try leaving when most members are offline.
Before leaving, set your status to Invisible so you appear offline. To do this, click your profile picture and choose Invisible from the status options.
Leaving a Discord server is a simple way to clean up your space and focus on the communities that matter most to you. Whether you’re stepping away from an inactive group, clearing distractions, or just starting fresh, knowing how to leave gives you more control over your Discord experience. If you're looking to join better, more active servers, a new or verified Discord account might be the perfect way to start fresh.
