YO!O India: Server Types Badges Update

Hey Mods and Admins,

We're here with an update to make it more clear how we categorize the different types of servers, how to recognize them, and what you can expect in those spaces.

💠 Friend Server
Friend Servers are invite-only spaces designed to discuss, connect, and share with your friends or smaller groups. Invite links in Friend servers will expire at a maximum of 30 days, though previously created non-expiring links will remain active and functional.

Friend Servers who wish to have access to Community features https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/360047132851-Enabling-Your-Community-Server may opt-in to become a Community Server at any time in server settings.

💠Community Server
Community Servers are spaces designed for people to share, connect, and learn from others all over the world who share common interests. Moderators in Community Servers have access to tools like Server Insights, Raid Protection, Rules, and Onboarding.

Becoming a Community Server does not mean that anyone can find or join your server. Prospective members have to be sent an invite link.

💠Updating Server Badging
In order for users to know what type of server they’re in, we’ve introduced badges for Community Servers.

We will display a distinct server badge if the server is a
* Community Server
* Discoverable Community
* Partnered Server
* Verified Server

Hovering over the badge will provide more detailed information about the server type, whether anyone can join the server, and the Boost level. Communities that previously had the “Public” tag will now have a “Discoverable Community” badge (denoted by a globe).
