Best Discord Bots 2023

 We talk about what Discord bots are for, how to install them and which ones are most useful in 2023

Discord is a popular freeware messenger that supports video conferencing and VoIP. The original application for Windows and smartphones has many useful features, is easy to use, and allows you to solve various tasks related to social communication. At the same time, the functionality can be significantly expanded through the use of bots. The program allows independent developers and any users to create bots, and then invite them to the channel to solve various problems.

In this guide, we will go over all the bots available for Discord, how to install them, and also talk about the TOP 10 best bots for Discord in 2023.

What functions does the bot perform

There are many bots on the Internet that perform a variety of functions. Some of them are in the public domain, and some are developed by order from private traders and are available only on the customer's server. One way or another, the main tasks that bots solve:

• Launch and listen to music, streams, and more from popular services including YouTube, Twitch, Soundcloud, and Bandcamp.
• Server moderation: deleting, disabling users using stop words, spam, deleting messages containing spam and forbidden phrases, and even greeting new server members.
• Creating a vote: usually, these are the simplest bots that allow you to ask server members a question and invite them to choose one of the answer options.

How to install a discord bot

This question is relevant for most users who do not know how to create bots on their own but want to use free programs to improve their Discord server.

The principle of installing bots is the same, but the step-by-step actions will depend on the specific bot. Consider the example of the MEE6 bot:

1. Open the official website of the bot developers. Since we are considering MEE6, we go to the following link.
2. If you went to the official website of a particular bot, then look for the button "Invite bot to the server" or "Add to Discrod" on the main screen. If you are on a site with a large selection of bots, in this case, drive the desired bot into the search box or check out the list of suggested ones.
3. The next steps depend on whether you are logged into the browser version of Discord or not. If you are not logged in, a window will open to enter your username and password. Fill in both fields and press Enter. Go to the point below.
4. If you are (or are) logged in to the Discord site, after clicking the invite bot button, a window will pop up asking you to grant the bot access to your account. Without this, the bot will not be able to check the servers available to you!
5. If you don't have servers, an error message will appear indicating that you don't have any. In this case, either create your own server or log in using other data to an account that has the server you need.
6. If several servers are available to you at once, their list will open, and you can select the one you want - the one to which the bot should be connected. Keep in mind that you can only invite bots to a server that you administer. If you are not an administrator, then the bot will not be invited to the server.
7. Click the "Continue" button to see a window in which you are asked to confirm the granting of certain rights to the bot on the server. If you wish, you can uncheck those items that you would not like to trust the bot, but please note that some of its functions may not work after that. So if you already decide to use a bot, then give it all the requested access.
8. Confirm the bot's authorization, pass the captcha check and complete the procedure.
9. For further use of the bot, read the instructions, learn all of its commands, and so on. It is rare that bots automatically work after being installed on the server. Often more precise adjustment is required.

10 Useful bots

Now let's explore the 10 most useful and common Discord bots in 2023.

MEE6

Incredibly useful Discord bot used for moderation, setting levels, and creating custom commands on the server. Distributed for free, but has a premium version. The presence of the Custom Commands function will allow you to create, modify and delete various commands for the bot, allowing it to respond to messages, write private messages to server members, and distribute or remove roles from them. Random responses are also supported: you specify a list of potential responses and the bot responds to server participants by choosing a phrase from the list randomly, with the same probability.

The level system will allow you to rank participants by level, which increases as you perform certain actions related to activity on the server. You can also set up greeting messages for members who level up. And you can congratulate both in PM and in the general channel.
