Discord status is reset

[TheRealRedSlime]

Summary

Discord status is reset when the session is resumed by the gateway

Reproduction Steps

I put a status to my discord selfbot with this :

headers = {
    "Authorization": token,
    "User-Agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/81.0.4044.129 Safari/537.36",
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "Accept": "*/*"
}
jsonData = {
    "status": random.choice(["dnd", "idle", "online"]),
    "custom_status": {
        "text": "please join this server → .gg/-------"
    }
}
r = requests.patch("https://discord.com/api/v9/users/@me/settings", headers=headers, json=jsonData)

When the session is resumed by the gateway, the custom status disappears.

System Information

I am in python 3.11 discord.py-self is in 2.0.0 version

Don't send requests to the API manually and expect the library to know what you did...

Either way this should be fixed now in most cases. To reiterate though, don't send manual requests :)
