The developer team at Discord released a new engineering blog post yesterday (December 8th) detailing lots of fixes, along with some Linux improvements. As one of the most popular chat apps in the world, it's good to see their support of Linux continue to get better over time.

As the other said, what are the alternatives? All my gaming friends are on Discord. I tried to make them switch to another platform but they won't budge. I'm stuck with discord.

In my country literally everyone still uses Facebook and Messenger for that simple reason: everyone they know uses it.

I've always been against Discord and I miss the Mumble+IRC days, but Discord is just the default now and it's not going away
