- In this video I cover how to easily install Discord as a Flatpak on any Linux distribution.

Step 1. Install Flatpak Support.

The first step is to enable Flatpak support for your Linux distribution by following the relevant documentation.
For example, if you use Ubuntu, click on the Ubuntu icon, and then follow the instructions from there, rebooting to finish the process.
Although some Linux distributions such as Pop!_OS and Linux Mint have Flatpak support enabled by default, so if you are using one of them, you can skip this step.
Step 2. Install Discord Flatpak.

There are two methods to install the Discord Flatpak, either using a Software Store such as Gnome Software or KDE Discover, or install using the Terminal.
For the first method, simply click on the blue Install button and this will begin the installation process in your distribution's Software Store.
For example, on Ubuntu, this would be Gnome Software.
The second method is using the Terminal, so if you click the down arrow, this will reveal a Terminal command that you can copy and paste, and then run.
In either case, once Discord is installed, launch it the same as any other application.
Step 3. Using Discord.
Once signed in, the interface of Discord is identical to what you would see if you were using it in a web browser or on Windows.
All your text and voice channels are located on the left, instant messaging works, live streaming works, in fact the only limitation which I have found, is that if you are playing a game, it will not show that on your profile.
Although strangely, if you play music using Spotify, it does, so I suspect that this is due to the nature of the Flatpak.

For more information about the Discord Flatpak, see the official GitHub page, which also has instructions on getting Discord to work if you use Wayland as your display server.

Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe to the channel as this helps me with the UA-cam algorithm.
Thanks for the tutorial
No problem :)
FLATPAK!!!
RANDOM NOISES !!!! :)
The reason Spotify works is because it doesn’t check Spotify from your pc but from its servers. Unlike games which are checked on the computer. It’s why you can manage the Spotify player from your phone to your PC.
Good to know :)
Yeah, my flatpak Discord is broken never get any output sound anymore used to work. Have to use Webcord now...
Strange.....literally was using it last night?
@@IntelligentGaming2020 Yep, tried Snap, tried Flatpak, tried .deb all no output on two diff headsets and even rolled back from the current versions...
Is streaming with sound a thing yet or no?
Yes, streaming with sounds works fine.
is it only for wayland perhaps? I tried to use it on steamdeck and it doesn't seem to work on desktop which uses x11

Just a heads up... Using the discord app is very strongly NOT recommended. Discord basically logs so much info about every singly key press you make and a lot more... Better use the browser version and block them from being silly by adding a few simple filter rules to adblock.
Have you got any evidence for this?
