  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    pepper ann pepper ann way too cool for 7th grade

    Yeah so you know how on a bunch of linux distros, Discord will nag you to update and then not let you in? And sometimes your repo isn't up-to-date enough to have the new version for you? AH GEEZ! SO ANNOYING!

    This includes how to fix it if you are on arch (CachyOS, Manjaro, etc).

    i can also recommend vesktop. i forgot if it's an official or aur package, though

    [–] Corelli_III@midwest.social 10 points 3 months ago

    i like vesktop on popOS/ ubuntu-likes

    just can't beat their aesthetic

    [–] dditty@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 months ago

    That's what I've also been using and I do prefer it. It's from the AUR

    [–] joyjoy@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago

    i have Vesktop installed as a flatpak

    [–] Kyouki@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

    equicord/equictl is yet another mod ontop of vencord mods for even more.

    [–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago

    Here's all the parts of a meme. Put them together yourself.

    The Discord flatpak never nags you about the update! Join us in Flatpak land! It Just Works β„’ .

    [–] seralth@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

    Expect when it doesn't! Flatpaks woo!

    [–] KernelTale@programming.dev 4 points 3 months ago

    I try to avoid flatpaks as much as possible. Vesktop on on flatpak takes like 15%CPU while .deb takes like 3% (both on idle)

    Just use it from the browser

    [–] gray@pawb.social 7 points 3 months ago

    If you don’t need a hotkey for your mic this is the best solution by far.

    [–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

    This is why I run discord in the browser only.

    Interesting. it'd be even better if everything didn't use discord as a wiki that can't be indexed.

    No matter the fixes I see, I just can't help but wonder why the base software can't just be better?

    my favourite part is how first they say oh a new update download the deb but then it doesn't auto download in app it takes you to the webpage (and you can't close out of the update window)... then you double click the deb and it updates in apt but then you open it and it updates AGAIN.

    [–] Technus@lemmy.zip 6 points 3 months ago

    Tbh I just use it as a reminder to run a system upgrade, otherwise I'd constantly forget to do it.

    [–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 5 points 3 months ago

    Omg it’s Pepper Ann! I haven’t thought about that show in probably 15 years.

    another deb? toss it in the discord debs folder.

    P. A. needs a sequel series.

    Goodcord flatpak eliminates telemetry and also includes vencord

    [–] BuboScandiacus@mander.xyz 1 points 3 months ago (2 children)

    Isn't there a possibility that you'll get banned for that ?

    [–] Grass@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 months ago

    ive been using vesktop/vencord for the past whenever it became a thing and so far nothing

    [–] Linearity 4 points 3 months ago

    Just keep it a secret from whomever might report you πŸ˜†

    [–] UnfortunateShort@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

    Some great 3rd party clients on Flathub as well (Webcord, Vesktop...)

    [–] 30p87@feddit.org -1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

    Ez fix: sudo pacman -Rns discord && echo "127.0.0.1 discord.com *.discord.com" | sudo tee -a /etc/hosts

    [–] FuyuhikoDate@feddit.org 4 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

    Hmm... Bur can you use discord when you block the connection to it by itself?

    [–] 30p87@feddit.org 2 points 3 months ago

    No. That's the point.

    [–] MehBlah@lemmy.world -5 points 2 months ago

    2/10. Solution doesn't involve replacing arch.
