You can use a Webhook to send messages to Discord. The advantages of this is that you can set the icon and username on every message. So when a Minecraft user sends a message in the server, if they have linked their accounts, it will show their Discord username and avatar. Otherwise their Minecraft head and current nickname/username.

The disadvantages with Webhooks is that you cannot send messages as quickly as a bot can.

Thx for your request. You can already test webhook delivery by enabling "Experiment_WebhookChatMessageDelivery" in config.yml. We actually always use the ingame (nick)name. Maybe we will also add an option to use the Discord (nick)name if linked.

I'm sure there's already a issue about Discord names in MC -> DC, either everyone needs to be linked (RequiredLinked4Gameplay) or it will be confusing to users with Minecraft names mixed in

Welp I'm blind xD. Thanks for telling me about that.

It don't think it'll be confusing but I don't know. I think it'll be nice
