It behaves the same way on Windows, but is a little better at cleaning up after itself when it updates. Itβs poorly architected.

Browser. website. basically the same experience without weird and/or shit integration into anything, share resources with the browser that's open anyway, works fine, and allow easy customization because it's a webpage anyway and you get to mess with the CSS/HTML/JS if you want to.
Mine updates with all my other stuff. Not sure why you'd need to download it every time. I installed it with pacman.
Flatpak π€·
Discord sure does feel like a 0.0.x version
I don't use a Debian based distro like Ubuntu anymore (arch BTW), but could you not just add their repo and do an apt update && apt upgrade?
Honestly, I really dislike apt and how you have to add random repos which is why I don't use it anymore. I moved away even before snaps.
Ps, I love the AUR.
They don't have a repo as far as I know. Hence the manual .deb install.

yay discord ftw
It's not just me!
I just use the flatpak on arch, can't be bothered to have a link to a deb or do a system update when discord wants a update.
In endeavour all I need to do is close it, run yay to update, open. "Lucky Day" gone
