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.

@Sukid If I add --disable-gpu-memory-buffer-video-frames along with --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform and --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform then it seems to stop crashing. So worth a shot.

Sukid commented on 2022-02-18 18:43 (UTC)

@mattj I still get segfaults often when using both the ozone wayland flags and hardware acceleration flags. ... although sometimes it doesn't segfault and I'm having trouble finding what the cause of that is.

The patch below forgets to reset the pkgrel to 1. Other than that, works great!

update the version to 0.0.17 and the sha512sum to 728c760f04770b197635d1fc1a2833c707ab462708cc0bf6fb165691c1375e14e3192f3806d3719325790459b39bd3425f5942d69a53019695f02c965214a5c9 to update the package please. I've tested it & it runs just as fine as before with those changes.

Also, electron 16 could be used as well. Works for me.

To those who don't know how to apply patches, just change the lines manually.

mattj commented on 2022-02-18 00:54 (UTC)

I'm not sure if it was the 0.0.17 update (with the below patch) that fixed it, but Ozone Wayland flags are now working again.

The patch worked like a charm, thanks.

This package should be renamed to discord-electron-bin to be consistent with the -canary package.

Zoddo commented on 2022-02-11 21:30 (UTC)

I can confirm the bug has been fixed with recent updates of the electron package. I believe the package can be switched back to electron16.
