Discord app doesn't do notifications after name change. Welp? (lemmy.world)

So I went through Discord's mandatory name change, and since then, the Android app doesn't do notifications for anything.

I was using an older version of the app, and since I needed to log in anyway (I had forgotten the password), I used the opportunity to wipe the app's data. But I set everything back, checked all settings, disabled and enabled everything again, and eventually uninstalled the app completely and installed the latest version. No Discord notifications.

I disabled battery optimisations, and my phone does not kill background apps. All my other messenger apps work fine.

Also, upon first launch, the app does show one "Google Play Availability" notification, so it's obviously still capable of doing so.

I'm out of ideas. Suggestions? Anyone had this experience after changing the name?

Could Discord support be of any help?

Don't know if it's anyone else's issue here, but I noticed that whenever I had Discord running on desktop I never get Android notifications. Not even when the desktops app has been idle all day, only when I kill the process entirely. The moment I do, I get the notifications on Android. I thought it should show if the desktop is idle for x minutes.

That's what support also said, that you don't get phone push notifications if you're also on desktop. Not my case tho.
