Any chance of a Wayland-only version of the Discord app? it is one of the few remaining apps I regularly use that wants XWayland available. Where can I request such a thing?

@andypiper It's an Electron app, so either Electron or ultimately Chromium. Electron has historically been absolute arse on supporting Wayland. But you can probably force the issue with your Discord client as a workaround, see wiki.archlinux.org/title/Disco

@bodil ah of course the Arch wiki has ideas! Thanks. I know Chrome is in decent shape on Wayland now, so here’s hoping.

@andypiper @bodil I run Discord via Wayland through the Flatpak version. I don't use it much, but it works well enough for the basics.

@andypiper Just use the browser! You're running 1:1 the same source code in both cases, plus you're using 1/10th the RAM

@andypiper @pojntfx I also use it in Firefox. It works great, plus I can just close the tab when I'm done with distractions.
