How to Set Up the Music Bot FredBoat for Discord in 2022

FredBoat is one of the most popular Music Bots for Discord in 2022, and setting it up is not that hard. The first thing that you need to check is that you have permission on the Discord server if you are not the server owner. You need to have the “Manage Server” permissions. If this is not the case, ask the server owner to provide you with the permissions, or pass them the link to this guide.
