Early Discord Mastodon Connection

README.md

howʻs it going guys

discord added mastodon linking! i took this script for early bsky linking and modified it, PLEASE read it, as you have to put in your own handle i donʻt know enough about powershell to make it give an input for the instance, so this is what weʻre making do with for the moment mostly original readme from parent gist below:

Prerequisites

• Discord token, you can get it via this guide: https://gist.github.com/MarvNC/e601f3603df22f36ebd3102c501116c6
• You might have to close / kill running Discord clients.

Instructions

1. paste the ps1 attached to this gist into powershell ISE
2. replace the part that says "YOUR HANDLE HERE PUT YOUR HANDLE HERE" with your own handle, instructions are commented below on line 2
3. script should spit out a link, paste into browser and authorize
4. Profit!
   

Caveats

• While the Mastodon Connection will display on official Desktop/Browser client, it might not display on official Android/iOS client.
