As of the latest version, discord launches successfully very infrequently on wayland (outside of xwayland).
Using the argument --no-sandbox
makes the launch more likely to succeed.
More info: Before the update I was using vencord, and after the update vencord seemed to have been uninstalled. I tried repairing/installing/uninstalling vencord using the cli installer and thats when I started noticing problems. Downgrading to the previous version did not fix the problem. The first run after an upgrade or downgrade seems to always work.

.Krisp not working
This is an issue that will likely never be fixed for this package. The Krisp module checks if Discord binaries are signed by Discord, which is not the case with this package.
See this comment and this GitHub issue for more details and possibles workarounds.
