Is it possible to disable video feeds on Discord for Android?
-
When doing a video call via Discord, one can turn off each friend's video feed. That is, if one is using the desktop client. It is possible on the desktop, but, curiously, not trivial in the metered connection of the cellphone...
I tried: long-pressing the person, looking into video configurations, searching both in search.brave.com and Google, and found no solution.
Is there any way to achieve it?

No, not possible

Sadly, we don't have any option to turn off the video feed on mobile devices. Unfortunately, we also don't have any timeframe if this feature will be implemented on all mobile devices. If you would like to see changes to these systems in the future, then you can definitely create or vote up the suggestions at https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/community/topics . It would really help us out if you upvote the idea since feedback contributes greatly to our decision-making of which features and fixes to implement in the future based on what our community wants. I'm so sorry again that we don't have a current solution for you at this time, but I like to think that anything is possible in the future. Please let me know if you have any other questions!

As pointed out in https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/242199/is-it-possible-to-disable-video-feeds-on-discord-for-android#comment323434_242199 , the fact that is open for so long is another indicator
