What changes were proposed in this pull request?

This PR fixes the broken Discord community badge link in the README.md file.
The original badge URL pointing to dcbadge.vercel.app was not displaying properly.

How was this patch tested?

  • Verified the new Discord badge uses Shields.io, which correctly shows the server status and links to the Discord invite.
  • Local preview of README.md confirmed the badge appears correctly.
  • No functional code changes involved; only documentation update.

Why are the changes needed?

The previous Discord badge was broken, which could confuse or deter users from joining the community. This update improves project documentation and community engagement by ensuring the Discord badge works and displays correctly.

The README.md discord badge seems to be working fine for me. I can't reproduce this.

I see, if we just change the link to this:

https://dcbadge.limes.pink/api/server/https://discord.gg/9A3k5dEBsY

We should be good to go. @Subham-KRLX

Thank you both for your feedback! I have updated the Discord badge to use the recommended dcbadge.limes.pink link to match the official site’s style.
