The package now reads flags from webcord-flags.conf in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME (~/.config).

WebCord 4.4.0 updated electron to v26 and the renderer crashes giving you a blank screen.

Downgrade to 4.3.0, or edit /usr/bin/webcord to use electron v25.

Oooh, I'm gonna use this client from now on! Far, far more stable and bug free than the original discord client!

Edit: not a bad program but it has one very annoying problem: it keeps forgetting that the mic is connected and every time I run WebCord, I have to manually disconnect and reconnect the mic for it to work.

@LiquidTown This is a known issue (see upstream: https://github.com/SpacingBat3/WebCord/issues/360) and deleting ~/.config/WebCord/config.json plus ~/.config/WebCord/windowState.json should solve it.

The app is being rewritten anyway so in a few months I imagine this will no longer be an issue.

I deleted the config folder and the error remained. I tried deleting the entire contents of the WebCord directory and it opens up fine again. Thank you for the help!

Hmm, seems like your ~/.config/WebCord/config.json is corrupted. Try to remove it (make backup copy if you want).

@Hanabishi I did a clean build of the package to no avail. This window shows up when I try to open webcord: https://imgur.com/sAns5rq.png

@LiquidTown, I don't see any issues. Can you provide the error details? Did you tried clean package rebuild?

I am getting a JSON syntax error when I try to open webcord. Is anyone else experiencing this?
