    I don’t like them as a company, but If Discord gives a shit enough to invest in the Linux client to capture more users, Linux is on the right track to grow even more. They don’t care about Linux current user base. They want the user base of what it can become.

      If by “invest” you mean paying one person a few hours weekly to create an Electron app, then there’s already plenty of companies doing that. None of which have declared the year of the linux desktop for it. Or maybe all of them, who knows. It’s the decade of the year of the linux desktop.

    I do wish they’d publish a proper apt repo instead of making me install the .deb everytime.

        I started using Vesktop to get away from that specifically… Maybe it’s time to try the default again? Well, it’s time to find a good alternate and convince everyone I know to switch, but that is a slow process so… lol

      Yeah discord hasn’t gone completely to shit but all the signs are there that it’s inevitable.

    i would think they would just focus on the flatpak instead of distro specific formats? and, i know there’s an issue with audio sharing apps on pipewire, is that fixed?

    but with all the ID crap etc and alternative apps getting pretty good (eying fluxer) maybe i will just jump to another app.

    still great to see good discord improvements.

    Fuckin finally.

    I checked a few months ago, and having never deleted them, had racked up multiple gigabytes of Discord updates in my downloads directory
