I see some recommendations for Vesktop in this thread.
For some reason, launching Vesktop's Flatpak version presents a blank window. It worked perfectly fine a few weeks ago. Going back several versions doesn't fix the problem.
Does anyone else have this issue? What doesn't help is that the repo doesn't have an issue tracker:
https://github.com/Vencord/Vesktop
Edit: Appimage version works just fine
Ran into that as well. Just use "repair vesktop" option from the right click menu on the icon when it's running. That fixes it. You'll stay logged in etc.
I think it's an x11/Wayland incompatability issue.

I fucking hate discord.
No wait.
I fucking hate the people who use discord.
Yeah this is annoying.
"It's your lucky day!"
I'll figure it out
I can't stand that I can't close discord until I have touched that stupid dropdown, to the point I have uninstalled discord and just use a matrix bridge or the browser version.
I'm on endeavouros so the deb file is pointless

Packaging desktop apps via deb (or other system package managers) is obsolete and should be frowned upon.

yay discord
Yes.
Even screen share is fixed in wayland now! I believe that the flatpak version was on the cusp of supporting it too so it might already. I kinda stopped caring about it when everything worked, which is certainly a good sign.
Everyone here is shouting flatpak, but I'm gonna shout flatpak of Vesktop!

On my aging laptop, the Discord app consumed RAM like Goku at an all-you-can-eat buffet. Moving back to a browser tab eliminated the overhead from Electron and was dramatically more performant as a result. This completely side-steps any upgrade and/or snap issues.
I wrote a small bash script to curl the latest .deb, install it, and delete it because i was having this problem too. shame it can't just auto-update or let me use the old version
