Discord’s channel structure changes occasionally. It’s probably quite different from four years ago…

* * *

Current best practices, as of 2025:

1. Use only the official invite

2. Ignore old instructions that mention `#join-course`

3. Treat `#how-to-access-discord` as the single source of truth

4. Use a clean environment if verification is flaky  
If you get errors like “too many redirects”, “HF account already verified”, or you only ever see `#how-to-access-discord`, do the following: ([Hugging Face Forums](/static-proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdiscuss.huggingface.co%2Ft%2Fjoin-the-hugging-face-discord%2F11263%3Fpage%3D2 "Join the Hugging Face Discord! - Page 2 - Community Calls"))

5. Escalate by DM’ing `@lunarflu` if you remain stuck

6. Once access works, join the “general” and course areas

If you follow this order—official invite → `#how-to-access-discord` instructions → clean-environment retry if needed → DM `@lunarflu` as fallback—you are aligned with how Hugging Face themselves currently tell people to join and troubleshoot access.
