it may hard to me, but i believe on stackoverflow power,

I want to change the bot status from playing to watching. I try this but it still playing status.

code:

import discord
from discord.ext.commands import Bot
from discord.ext import commands
import asyncio

PREFIX = ("$")
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=PREFIX, description='Hi')

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    activity = discord.Game(name="Netflix", type=3)
    await bot.change_presence(status=discord.Status.idle, activity=activity)
    print("Bot is ready!")

bot.run('TOKEN')

You can use this Ezz!

# Setting `Playing ` status
await bot.change_presence(activity=discord.Game(name="a game"))

# Setting `Streaming ` status
await bot.change_presence(activity=discord.Streaming(name="My Stream", url=my_twitch_url))

# Setting `Listening ` status
await bot.change_presence(activity=discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.listening, name="a song"))

# Setting `Watching ` status
await bot.change_presence(activity=discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.watching, name="a movie"))
