Discord

Discord messenger. Join servers and chat with friends!

Flatpak (System)

flatpak install flathub com.discordapp.Discord

Flatpak (User)

flatpak install --user flathub com.discordapp.Discord

Screen sharing does not work on Wayland because Discord uses an outdated electron version. For that, you may want to check out Vesktop or install Xwayland Video Bridge.

Vesktop supports video and audio sharing out of the box and has Vencord tweak integrated. It is the editors’ preferred way to use Discord.

Vencord

A Discord mod (not affiliated with Discord) that allows for theming and cool features.

Very easy installation. Just paste this line in the terminal to run and set up the installer:

sh -c "$(curl -sS https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Vendicated/VencordInstaller/main/install.sh)"

Good practice to inspect scripts before you run them!

Discord Rich Presence (DRP)

Flatpak is a sandbox, you need a few more steps to set up Discord Rich Presence

DRP for Non-Flatpak Apps

mkdir -p ~/.config/user-tmpfiles.d
echo 'L %t/discord-ipc-0 - - - - app/com.discordapp.Discord/discord-ipc-0' > ~/.config/user-tmpfiles.d/discord-rpc.conf
systemctl --user enable --now systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service

DRP for Flatpak Apps

Not Recommended, find more info in the GitHub Link

Vesktop

Discord with screen sharing and audio support, as well as Vencord inbuilt.

We recommend installing the native versions with the commands below or via Vesktop’s Github Releases for all features (namely Rich Presense) to work out of the box.

Fedora (Terra)

sudo dnf install vesktop

Arch (AUR)

Via an AUR helper such as yay — package vesktop-bin:

yay -S vesktop-bin

Flatpak (System)

flatpak install flathub dev.vencord.Vesktop

Flatpak (User)

flatpak install --user flathub dev.vencord.Vesktop
