YOO NO IT STILL WORKS FOR ME LOL IT SEEMS TO BE UNPATCHED SO YALL SHOULD STILL USE IT!!!

window.webpackChunkdiscord_app.push([[ Math.random() ], {}, (req) => { wpRequire = req; }]);
mod = Object.values(wpRequire.c).find(x => typeof x?.exports?.Z?.isDeveloper !== "undefined");
usermod = Object.values(wpRequire.c).find(x => x?.exports?.default?.getUsers)
nodes = Object.values(mod.exports.Z._dispatcher._actionHandlers._dependencyGraph.nodes)
try {
    nodes.find(x => x.name == "ExperimentStore").actionHandler["OVERLAY_INITIALIZE"]({user: {flags: 1}})
} catch (e) {}
oldGetUser = usermod.exports.default.__proto__.getCurrentUser;
usermod.exports.default.__proto__.getCurrentUser = () => ({isStaff: () => true})
nodes.find(x => x.name == "DeveloperExperimentStore").actionHandler["CONNECTION_OPEN"]()
usermod.exports.default.__proto__.getCurrentUser = oldGetUser

this should work in all cases

webpackChunkdiscord_app.push([[0], {}, (e) => { module = Object.values(e.c).find(x => x?.exports?.default?.getUsers).exports.default; }]);
nodes = Object.values(module._dispatcher._actionHandlers._dependencyGraph.nodes);
try { nodes.find(x => x.name == "ExperimentStore").actionHandler["OVERLAY_INITIALIZE"]({ user: { flags: 1 } }); } catch (e) { }
original = [module.getCurrentUser, module.getNonImpersonatedCurrentUser];
module.getCurrentUser = module.getNonImpersonatedCurrentUser = () => ({ isStaff: () => true });
nodes.find(x => x.name == "DeveloperExperimentStore").actionHandler["OVERLAY_INITIALIZE"]();
[module.getCurrentUser, module.getNonImpersonatedCurrentUser] = original;

oh btw the script I sent is old and it worked for me because I wasn't on the latest, acendvgnt posted a new one but I don't want to risk losing discord experiments to test it so yeah gl guys

Works.

is there a way to make it so you dont have to run it each time you start discord

is there a way to make it so you dont have to run it each time you start discord

not really but you can automate the process on the web version of Discord by using Tampermonkey or some other userscript extension

Here is a BetterDiscord plugin for it:

/**
 * @name Experiments
 * @author Maple38
 * @description Enables access to experiments and staff-only options for normal users.
 * @version 1.0.0
 */

let wpRequire

module.exports = class Experiments {
    load() {}

    start = () => {
        
        window.webpackChunkdiscord_app.push([[ Math.random() ], {}, (req) => { wpRequire = req; }]);
        let mod = Object.values(wpRequire.c).find(x => typeof x?.exports?.Z?.isDeveloper !== "undefined");
        let usermod = Object.values(wpRequire.c).find(x => x?.exports?.default?.getUsers)
        let nodes = Object.values(mod.exports.Z._dispatcher._actionHandlers._dependencyGraph.nodes)
        try {
            nodes.find(x => x.name == "ExperimentStore").actionHandler["OVERLAY_INITIALIZE"]({user: {flags: 1}})
        } catch (e) {}
        let oldGetUser = usermod.exports.default.__proto__.getCurrentUser;
        usermod.exports.default.__proto__.getCurrentUser = () => ({isStaff: () => true})
        nodes.find(x => x.name == "DeveloperExperimentStore").actionHandler["CONNECTION_OPEN"]()
        usermod.exports.default.__proto__.getCurrentUser = oldGetUser
    }

    stop = () => {}
}

Put that into a BetterDiscord plugin and it should work. I simply turned the already working code to do it into a plugin that runs when you run Discord. I do not know any Javascript, so I probably won't be able to fix any issues you may have with it. Despite not knowing any Javascript, I somehow got this to work with the power of imagination and spending an hour assaulting my keyboard to fix errors.

If you don't know how to turn it into a plugin, just download this and put it in your plugins folder, which you can find by pressing Windows + R and typing %APPDATA%\BetterDiscord\plugins.

this should work in all cases

webpackChunkdiscord_app.push([[0], {}, (e) => { module = Object.values(e.c).find(x => x?.exports?.default?.getUsers).exports.default; }]);
nodes = Object.values(module._dispatcher._actionHandlers._dependencyGraph.nodes);
try { nodes.find(x => x.name == "ExperimentStore").actionHandler["OVERLAY_INITIALIZE"]({ user: { flags: 1 } }); } catch (e) { }
original = [module.getCurrentUser, module.getNonImpersonatedCurrentUser];
module.getCurrentUser = module.getNonImpersonatedCurrentUser = () => ({ isStaff: () => true });
nodes.find(x => x.name == "DeveloperExperimentStore").actionHandler["OVERLAY_INITIALIZE"]();
[module.getCurrentUser, module.getNonImpersonatedCurrentUser] = original;

works, thanks.

I can confirm this works on stable at the date of 14/02/2023

is it dangerous to use experiments on my main?

If you have any doubts, then you better don't do any of it, since its clearly against the T&C of Discord if you do so. There are people claiming Discord "knows everything" but it's likely only Discord's internal staff will know the exact answer (or someone who decided to investigate it).

Also vouch for the code, working as expected for now

is it dangerous to use experiments on my main?

Nope. If you read the code, there’s nothing that it can do to steal your account. Also it’s not against tos

Pretty sure it’s entirely not against tos.

is it dangerous to use experiments on my main?

Absolutely. We can't say for sure that using them is safe, after all you have to enter this code to be able to use it in the first place unless you are discord staff. So it's best to assume yes.

I would say that while there is an inherent risk, you should be fine just having them enabled, because lots of people do without being banned. The main area I could see issues arising is if you attempt to bypass server-side permissions, like bigger file uploads without nitro. Changing stuff on the client-side shouldn't cause much issue though.

I cant open up console anymore my config looks like

Thanks, working fine on Canary

Thanks for sharing updated code. I'm able to see the experiments but unfortunately the HDR Screen capture option doesn't work anymore, is that right?

Thanks for sharing updated code. I'm able to see the experiments but unfortunately the HDR Screen capture option doesn't work anymore, is that right?

This code only enables the Experiments tab and the ability to enable experiments in it. If an experiment doesn't work, it's most likely because Discord is experimenting with it.

Here is a BetterDiscord plugin for it:

/**
 * @name Experiments
 * @author Maple38
 * @description Enables access to experiments and staff-only options for normal users.
 * @version 1.0.0
 */

let wpRequire

module.exports = class Experiments {
    load() {}

    start = () => {
        
        window.webpackChunkdiscord_app.push([[ Math.random() ], {}, (req) => { wpRequire = req; }]);
        let mod = Object.values(wpRequire.c).find(x => typeof x?.exports?.Z?.isDeveloper !== "undefined");
        let usermod = Object.values(wpRequire.c).find(x => x?.exports?.default?.getUsers)
        let nodes = Object.values(mod.exports.Z._dispatcher._actionHandlers._dependencyGraph.nodes)
        try {
            nodes.find(x => x.name == "ExperimentStore").actionHandler["OVERLAY_INITIALIZE"]({user: {flags: 1}})
        } catch (e) {}
        let oldGetUser = usermod.exports.default.__proto__.getCurrentUser;
        usermod.exports.default.__proto__.getCurrentUser = () => ({isStaff: () => true})
        nodes.find(x => x.name == "DeveloperExperimentStore").actionHandler["CONNECTION_OPEN"]()
        usermod.exports.default.__proto__.getCurrentUser = oldGetUser
    }

    stop = () => {}
}

Put that into a BetterDiscord plugin and it should work. I simply turned the already working code to do it into a plugin that runs when you run Discord.

Thank you so much! Can you please upload this to a GitHub repo or something easier for other people to find?

Thanks for sharing updated code. I'm able to see the experiments but unfortunately the HDR Screen capture option doesn't work anymore, is that right?

It works, its just that the tonemapping isn't great. Its definitely better than standard.

Now I just need a way to make it stick through restarts of discord

You won't be able to do that, because the source code (Discords source code) is loaded every time your reload Discord and you would have to open console and paste it in there automatically if you "wanted it to stick with Discord restarts".

any way to enable experiments that don't show up?

@MichaelDavidGK what do you mean "not show up"?

@MichaelDavidGK what do you mean "not show up"?

@Aholicknight

There is list of all Experiments ever:
https://gist.github.com/XYZenix/95de40ff80091c0ff7b0cfd610bd10d7

Some of these are not in Experiments tab

there was a way to edit local storage keys, but it doesn't seem to work for 2021-04_april_fools

@MichaelDavidGK what do you mean "not show up"?

@Aholicknight

@MichaelDavidGK Do you even know what these experiments do, or are you activating all of them at once and hoping for the best? If you do not know how to show the experiement, then don't bother with this. And most experiments won't work because you do not have access.

@Aholicknight I used to have 2021-04_april_fools enabled, but somehow it doesn't work since discord added 2023-03_april_fools
I had it enabled even tho it was hidden in experiment tab

I am just asking if someone knows another way of enabling them except editing local storage keys

@MichaelDavidGK then they likely removed the experiment, they do that sometimes

@Aholicknight I know that this might be the case, sadly :(
I hoped maybe someone knows how to check if it is deleted and if so then how to enable it
It's okay if not
