pepper ann pepper ann way too cool for 7th grade
Yeah so you know how on a bunch of linux distros, Discord will nag you to update and then not let you in? And sometimes your repo isn't up-to-date enough to have the new version for you? AH GEEZ! SO ANNOYING!
This includes how to fix it if you are on arch (CachyOS, Manjaro, etc).

i can also recommend vesktop. i forgot if it's an official or aur package, though

i like vesktop on popOS/ ubuntu-likes
just can't beat their aesthetic

That's what I've also been using and I do prefer it. It's from the AUR

equicord/equictl is yet another mod ontop of vencord mods for even more.

Here's all the parts of a meme. Put them together yourself.

The Discord flatpak never nags you about the update! Join us in Flatpak land! It Just Works ™ .

Expect when it doesn't! Flatpaks woo!
KernelTale@programming.dev · 5 pts · 359d
I try to avoid flatpaks as much as possible. Vesktop on on flatpak takes like 15%CPU while .deb takes like 3% (both on idle)

Just use it from the browser

If you don’t need a hotkey for your mic this is the best solution by far.

This is why I run discord in the browser only.
cupcakezealot@piefed.blahaj.zone · 8 pts · 360d
plus you can use discord container

Interesting. it'd be even better if everything didn't use discord as a wiki that can't be indexed.
No matter the fixes I see, I just can't help but wonder why the base software can't just be better?

my favourite part is how first they say oh a new update download the deb but then it doesn't auto download in app it takes you to the webpage (and you can't close out of the update window)... then you double click the deb and it updates in apt but then you open it and it updates AGAIN.

Tbh I just use it as a reminder to run a system upgrade, otherwise I'd constantly forget to do it.

Omg it’s Pepper Ann! I haven’t thought about that show in probably 15 years.

Goodcord flatpak eliminates telemetry and also includes vencord
BuboScandiacus@mander.xyz · 1 pts · 360d
Isn't there a possibility that you'll get banned for that ?
Grass@sh.itjust.works · 7 pts · 360d
ive been using vesktop/vencord for the past whenever it became a thing and so far nothing
Linearity@infosec.pub · 4 pts · 359d
Just keep it a secret from whomever might report you 😆
cupcakezealot@piefed.blahaj.zone · 4 pts · 360d
another deb? toss it in the discord debs folder.
Endymion_Mallorn@kbin.melroy.org · 3 pts · 360d
P. A. needs a sequel series.
UnfortunateShort@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 360d
Some great 3rd party clients on Flathub as well (Webcord, Vesktop...)

Ez fix: sudo pacman -Rns discord && echo "127.0.0.1 discord.com *.discord.com" | sudo tee -a /etc/hosts
FuyuhikoDate@feddit.org · 5 pts · 360d
Hmm... But can you use discord when you block the connection to it by itself?
30p87@feddit.org · 2 pts · 360d
No. That's the point.

2/10. Solution doesn't involve replacing arch.
