WebCord is an “alternative client” for Discord, although it’s just running the Discord webpage in electron. Recently it updated its electron version so it supports sharing audio as well as video.
I tried it out today on mint (x11, pulseaudio) and it works flawlessly.

Anyone tried on wayland?
Yeah I’m curious too. Does this feature works on Wayland?
On wayland (KDE Plasma) it’s not as seamless. For me it creates two sinks, one of which is voice channel and other is the stream audio stream. It wires my mic to both automatically and i have to manually wire the app audio to stream audio sink. So it does work with extra steps. I use qpwgraph for wiring.
I still have major problems with presence detection and notifications (in Webcord. Love it on Deck tho.) Could be me. Vencord is a project I just stumbled on and it seems really solid in just about every area. Check out those plugins.
And Vencord has a desktop client “Vesktop” which works like Webcord, with audio in stream too. No presence detection but notifications have worked for me
Oh shit nice
Nicee. Although, I’ve been having trouble running webcord. I get some decryptkey message error. It might have to do with my keys in my kde wallet. I have absolutely no idea how to fix it.
Discord is one of those things that should be avoided at all costs.
Yeah, but all of my friends use it.
They maybe you should transition them off of it if you can
So far there’s no good alternatives
Well I do agree that Discord is horrible, you’ve got to understand how hard it is to get friends that don’t care about their privacy to use something else.
