Discord has recently enabled voice messages for channels with more than 200 users, informed users of upcoming changes to usernames, and shared multiple feature announcements. Among these are plans to introduce some free stickers, onboarding experiences for new users managed by community server admins, embedded channel messages, and media file previews.

### How to Access and Use These Features

Depending on when the features are rolled out to your account, access and use may vary. However, here's a general guide on how to use them: 

1. For **voice messages**, join a channel with at least 200 users and look for a voice messaging option.
2. For upcoming [username changes](https://discord.com/blog/usernames?ref=testingcatalog.com), eligible users will be **notified of potential username claims** as the changes are made.
3. When **free stickers** become available, access them from your emoji picker in chat.
4. If you are a community server admin, you can now set up **onboarding experiences** by configuring channel settings and user roles.
5. When **embedded channel name links** are enabled, pasting a channel link in chat will automatically convert it to the channel's name.
6. To **preview media files**, simply select a file and check for a preview option before sending it in a chat.
