@here Vs @everyone?

3.0BRAINROT SCORE

@HERE— ORIGIN, MEANING & USAGE

@here A Discord mention that notifies only the members of a channel who are currently online, as opposed to @everyone which reaches everybody. It is used for time-sensitive messages such as "we start now", and like @everyone it is often limited to moderators.

Origin:Discord's help pages could not be opened, and the Wikipedia Discord article does not cover mentions. A third-party guide seen only in search results describes @here as notifying channel members who are currently online, and a Discord support-forum post notes that in the API @here and @everyone share one mention flag. No dated first use is documented in the pages consulted, so the behaviour described is general platform knowledge rather than something documented by a page opened for this entry. This is a weak entry.

EXAMPLE USAGE

""@here the raid starts in ten minutes, get in voice.""

@EVERYONE— ORIGIN, MEANING & USAGE

@everyone A Discord mention that sends a notification to every member who can see the channel, used for announcements and also for jokes or pranks. Because it alerts so many people, servers usually restrict who may use it, and members treat an unneeded @everyone as annoying or rude.

Origin:Discord's help pages could not be opened, and the Wikipedia Discord article does not cover mentions. A Discord support-forum request, seen only as a search result, states that in the API @everyone and @here set a single mention-everyone flag; a third-party guide, also not opened, describes @everyone as notifying all channel members whether or not they are online. No dated first use is documented in the pages consulted, so the mechanics described are general platform knowledge. This is a weak entry.
