How to underline text in Discord (PC)
Step
Underline using underscores
To underline your text, you will need to surround it with two underscores on each side. Here’s an example of what we mean:
__example text__
This is a piece of __example__ text
When you type this into the message box, it will still have the underscores around the text. However, once you send the message, these will be removed, and only the text that you want to be underlined will be.
Bear in mind that there are two underscores on either side of the text. Using just one will not work to underline the text.
Step
Underline with other formatting
In addition to this, you can use the formatting shortcuts together to add more than one style to your text.
For instance, if you want to italicize your text and also underline it, you can do this –
__**example text**__
