Starting with 0.0.26-1 (2023-03-31):
  • Switched back to the main electron package (electron22)
  • Watching cameras and streams is working again
Starting with 0.0.20-1 (2022-09-15):
  • Bumped electron16 to electron19 (I still have blocking issues with electron20)
  • Added support for $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/discord-flags.conf: this works like electron-flags.conf, you can set in this file the command line flags you want to pass to electron when running Discord (there are some useful flags in the wiki, especially if you are experiencing lag in the Discord UI).
FAQ

Discord requires an update, but this package isn't yet updated
Check the wiki.

The Discord UI is lagging
Try to add the flags recommended in the wiki in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/discord-flags.conf.

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.

Fails to start with A Javascript error occured in the main process. I'm unable to copy the error log to paste here, but here's a screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/rVhDyfS.png Weirdly, it works fine if launched as /usr/bin/discord from a terminal

Sadly this build doesn't like to work with other software. For example "discordrp-mpris" is giving me

ERROR:discord_rpc.async_:failed to open '/run/user/1000/discord-ipc-0': [Errno 111] Connection refused

Couldn't get betterdiscord working either.

Recent update of Electron to a new major version (16) does make Discord crash or behave buggy.

For now, downgrading Electron to its latest 15 version does fix it.

As a side note: I've been able to avoid Discord coredumping on start by launching it from terminal. I don't understand why.

no matter what I do, trying to run Discord with Ozone (for wayland) results in a crash

I have this same problem on a machine with an AMD card. Interestingly though I'm able to run Discord under Wayland just fine on my laptop that uses integrated Intel graphics. It's been this way for months now, and it's the same for the element-desktop package.

For some reason I'm getting no window decorations with this under Gnome+Wayland.

EDIT: Just found the CSD vs SSD debate for Gnome. If anyone else is wondering, Gnome on Wayland does not (will not?) support server-side window decorations.

Weird issue, no matter what I do, trying to run Discord with Ozone (for wayland) results in a crash. I've tried with the latest electron (14), I've tried 9, 10, 11, 12, and probably 13 too, I've tried on multiple installs, with multiple WMs, multiple different flags (like --enable-gpu, --disable-gpu-memory-buffer-video-frames, etc.) and nothing works. Same error every time too. Error log:

(electron) Sending uncompressed crash reports is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of Electron. Set { compress: true } to opt-in to the new behavior. Crash reports will be uploaded gzipped, which most crash reporting servers support.

Since the update to 0.0.16, I am unable to drag files directly into discord to upload them to chats. Has anyone else experienced this issue? I am using KDE Plasma on X.
