Updated the Discord icon in the systray to show the red "mentioned" icon when there are new messages. Whatever you do, you can't get rid of this point permanently. Regardless, you can hide it by closing an existing direct message with a friend, but the red dot will return after 2-3 seconds. At the same time, you click on each open discussion and notice that none of them show an unread badge. But the red dot is still there. Congratulations, you are on the correct page, we will show you some methods you can use to erase the red dot from Discord. Go!
The new update for Discord has updated the Discord icon in the taskbar to show the red "mentioned" icon when there are new messages and not when it is shown only for messages in which it has been mentioned. I did not find this change in the changelog, which makes me think it is a bug or not mentioned change.
