Most internet users have come across an “Error 404: Page not Found” message while surfing the Web. Most sites don’t have anything to offer visitors through their 404 page, but Discord seems to be different.
The Discord 404 page is what users get to when they type a wrong or disabled Web address related to Discord. All Discord users can also access an Easter egg and legacy displays through the official 404 page.
Taking cues from this guide makes it easy to locate hidden details on the Discord 404 error page whenever you visit.
What is the 404 Page on Discord?

Secret Button

Easter Egg
On the Discord 404 page, the Easter egg ‘SNEK’ is hidden underneath a button for a robot hamster. The Easter egg button is positioned to the left of two jars receiving drops of liquid from a feeder.
