Wayland and audio is fixed, but only on the canary branch for the moment, this isnt lazy either, they changed the whole screenshare flow to suit linux’s permission prompts

    Third party discord clients keep letting me down, not updating their electron version and breaking my system updates cause it’s marked insecure

    Browser version with extensions is the way to go

        Stylus for theming, vimium for navigation

        It works a lot better than the discord app, more responsive for one. Ctrl k on the app takes a few seconds, takes half a second on web

        Multiple instances at once without any hassle is nice, the ability to open links in the same window instead of having it open a browser somewhere (tiling wm with discord in a pop up layer)

        Seems to be less resource intensive I assume because no electron wrapper running, just Firefox which I already have open anyway

        Plus the main one is that because it’s not using electron I don’t have the constant drama with insecure electron versions, also if discord forces an update and your package manager doesn’t update you just can’t use discord for a few days until it catches up
