How to Fix Discord Music Bot Lagging

If the Discord music bot is lagging on any server that you’re a part of or if you are hosting one, then in this guide I will teach you how to fix that issue. This bot is responsible for the music that users share in a server chat. The lag happens due to the voice server for that particular region in which the user is active. Sometimes if a Discord server has too many active users using the music bot, it may not take the load and cause the lagging.

A working solution for the latency issue is to change the server to some other region. Now, there is no guarantee that if you switch to another server, the lag won’t happen. It will depend upon how busy the server is. On another note, it is also advisable to check your internet connectivity. If the network is down, then that may also cause the Discord music bot to lag.
