How to make text bigger in Discord
Big text in Discord = headers. Start a line with a hash and a space:
#+ space — the biggest text Discord can render.##+ space — medium.###+ space — slightly larger than normal.
Rules that trip people up: the hash must be at the very start of the line, the space after it is mandatory, and headers are one line each — the next line returns to normal size.
Big text in names
Headers don’t work in names. For a “bigger-looking” username, the tricks are visual weight, not size: Bold Sans and Wide Unicode styles from the font generator read larger at the same font size (Ｕｍａｒ).
Big text questions
Why is my # showing as a hash instead of big text?
Either there’s no space after the # or it isn’t at the start of the line — both are required. Mid-line hashes stay literal.
Can I make an entire message big?
Put # at the start of every line. There’s no wrapper that enlarges a multi-line block at once.
What’s the opposite — small text?
Subtext: start the line with -#. Full guide: small text in Discord.
