pepper ann pepper ann way too cool for 7th grade

Yeah so you know how on a bunch of linux distros, Discord will nag you to update and then not let you in? And sometimes your repo isn't up-to-date enough to have the new version for you? AH GEEZ! SO ANNOYING!

This includes how to fix it if you are on arch (CachyOS, Manjaro, etc).

i forgot to come up with a meme, but here is how to get rid of the discord update nag on arch based linux, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Discord

    This is why I run discord in the browser only.

    Interesting. it'd be even better if everything didn't use discord as a wiki that can't be indexed.

    No matter the fixes I see, I just can't help but wonder why the base software can't just be better?

  • my favourite part is how first they say oh a new update download the deb but then it doesn't auto download in app it takes you to the webpage (and you can't close out of the update window)... then you double click the deb and it updates in apt but then you open it and it updates AGAIN.

    Tbh I just use it as a reminder to run a system upgrade, otherwise I'd constantly forget to do it.

    Isn't there a possibility that you'll get banned for that ?

    The Discord flatpak never nags you about the update! Join us in Flatpak land! It Just Works β„’ .

    2/10. Solution doesn't involve replacing arch.
