Could the wrapper script be updated? Here's a version that accounts for vaapi/ozone on wayland, though it has not been tested under wayland yet, since I don't have a wayland-capable machine.

Update: it has been tested on wayland, and appears to work.

#!/usr/bin/env sh
EXTRA_FLAGS="$@"

#Check if XDG_SESSION_TYPE is set
if [ -z "$XDG_SESSION_TYPE" ]
then
  echo "XDG_SESSION_TYPE is not set, cannot apply extra flags"
elif [ "$XDG_SESSION_TYPE" == "x11" ]
then
  EXTRA_FLAGS="--no-sandbox ${EXTRA_FLAGS}"
elif [ "$XDG_SESSION_TYPE" == "wayland" ]
then
  EXTRA_FLAGS="--enable-features=VaapiVideoDecoder,VaapiVideoEncoder,WebrtcPipewireCapturer,UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland ${EXTRA_FLAGS}"
else
  echo "Unknown XDG_SESSION_TYPE: ${XDG_SESSION_TYPE}, cannot apply extra flags"
fi

echo "Passing extra electron flags: ${EXTRA_FLAGS}"
/opt/discord-development/DiscordDevelopment "${EXTRA_FLAGS}"

Arch packages need not provide themselves.

When I originally made it, I used a modified version of the discord-canary install script, which, at the time, provided discord. However, looking at their page, they've now changed it to provide discord-development, so I will do that.

Also, thanks for the out-of-date flag - for some reason, my client wasn't bugging me about the update as it normally does, so I was not aware.

shouldn't this provide discord-development and not discord? because right now, it conflicts with discord_arch_electron that actually provides discord

these can definitely coexist
