    The original snippet no longer works!

On 02/09/2024 at around 8pm UTC, Discord flipped an experiment (2023-09_mobile_redesign_override_toggles) which ignores the layout toggle that this script relied on.
If you want to continue using the old layout, you can either use a modded mobile client (such as Vendetta) to disable that experiment, or downgrade to an old version of the app.
Method 1 - Downgrading (Android)

Tip
Use this one if you want a fast, beginner-friendly solution and don't mind using a version from November 2023


Download version 205.15 of Discord mobile app from ApkMirror
Download ApkMirror's installer to install the downloaded "apk bundle"
Enjoy :)

Method 2 - Vendetta (Android)


Download and install Vendetta Manager
Open it
Tap the settings icon in top right corner
Go to Advanced, tap on "Check for Discord updates" and set it to "Disabled"
Go back to settings, then go to "About"
Tap the version number below the "Vendetta Manager" label a few times until it says "You're now a developer"
Go back to settings, then go to "Developer only"
In the text field that says "Discord version" enter this number: 215024 (it's the last version that still has the old channels list in old layout)
Exit out of settings
Press "Install" on the main screen
Wait for Vendetta to install, open it once it's finished
Login to Vendetta with your Discord account like normal
Go to Settings -> Plugins
Click the + button, paste this link: https://vd-plugins.github.io/proxy/maisymoe.github.io/strife/Experiments/ and click Install
Restart the app
Go to Settings -> Experiments
Set Tabs V2 - redesign opt-out for T2 to Treatment 1: show
Set Tabs V2 - redesign opt-out/in for all to Not Eligible

(If your Discord didn't switch back to old layout after this step, go to Settings -> Appearance and flip the "Show New Layout" toggle off)

Set Mobile Chat Input Action Menu to Not Eligible
If you still have the new layout in user settings, set You Tab Individual Feature to Not Eligible

iOS

I don't have an iOS device so I don't know much about sideloading or jailbreaking, but I believe you should be able to install Vendetta and follow the same steps as for Android. I think the IPAs for non-jailbroken devices listed there might even be old enough for you to not worry about messing with experiments.

Revert New Discord Layout

How to use this script:

Go to https://discord.com/app
Press Ctrl + Shift + I to open DevTools
Go to the Console tab
Paste the following code and hit enter:

let wpRequire;
window.webpackChunkdiscord_app.push([[ Math.random() ], {}, (req) => { wpRequire = req; }]);

let UserSettingsActions = Object.values(wpRequire.c).find(x => x?.exports?.PreloadedUserSettingsActionCreators).exports;
let ProtobufTypes = Object.values(wpRequire.c).find(x => x?.exports?.BoolValue).exports;

UserSettingsActions.PreloadedUserSettingsActionCreators.updateAsync("appearance", data => {
    data.mobileRedesignDisabled = ProtobufTypes.BoolValue.create({value: true})
}, UserSettingsActions.UserSettingsDelay.INFREQUENT_USER_ACTION)
This code requires no changes, preserves all your other appearance settings (such as theme), as well as automatically includes all relevant Discord headers, reducing any risks to minimum.
How does this work?

This emulates flipping the Show New Layout toggle in appearance settings. Yes the toggle is server-synced for some reason.
Note: This is only a temporary solution. Discord will start ignoring that setting in some future update.

This was inspired by @xeuk's original snippet
