Once upon a time, ripcord was my favorite to use, unfortunately its been dead and dormant for over 2 years now. Id love to know if anybody knows any similar client (for example: be it in having custom design, or being super lightweight)
(yes, i know, you dont have to say i should use matrix or something else)
If this is “completely open source” and “doesn’t rely on the original Discord client in any way” (from their front page) how can mods for the official client be compatible?
Oh wait, their faq clarifies things: it’s an electron wrapper for the official web client, not a completely open source client that doesn’t rely on the official one as they claim.
ArchWiki has a list: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Discord#Third-party_clients
Ripcord is really unique and it’s still my favorite third party client. Abaddon might be worth trying. Unfortunately, most other third party clients are wrappers.
Ripcord has been pretty great, but it hasn’t been updated in a long time.
I’ve been using Webcord with substantial improvements from the native Discord app.
The flatpak crashes for me since some time sadly. I’m just using a basic chromium browser and their (shitty) webapp
The appimage seems solid for me thus far, installed through this handy tool.
