After a chat with @Zoddo and me just taking too long to come back to this, there should everything now be included that was in my old discord-electron package some migrated from (Krisp patcher, Wayland, autostart fix). Additionally I replaced the scrappy rizin patcher with a Python script someone from the nix community kindly made available.
Instead of checking against a checksum to know whether the Krisp binary was patched the script is run on every start of the client that results in slightly longer start times but has the advantage that we don't have to update the package if Discord ever silently updates the binary between client updates over their modules api.

Cheers

Starting with 0.0.26-1 (2023-03-31):
  • Switched back to the main electron package (electron22)
  • Watching cameras and streams is working again
Starting with 0.0.20-1 (2022-09-15):
  • Bumped electron16 to electron19 (I still have blocking issues with electron20)
  • Added support for $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/discord-flags.conf: this works like electron-flags.conf, you can set in this file the command line flags you want to pass to electron when running Discord (there are some useful flags in the wiki, especially if you are experiencing lag in the Discord UI).
FAQ

Discord requires an update, but this package isn't yet updated
Check the wiki.

The Discord UI is lagging
Try to add the flags recommended in the wiki in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/discord-flags.conf.

Krisp not working
This is an issue that will likely never be fixed for this package. The Krisp module checks if Discord binaries are signed by Discord, which is not the case with this package.
See this comment and this GitHub issue for more details and possibles workarounds.

@haxibami Krisp should work since last package update, the binary can't be stripped for it to work and it was set by default now

Is there anyone successfully running Krisp noise suppression with this package? According to this issue, Krisp module may not load if Discord executable is not signed.

@s0lst1ce Make sure your system is fully updated. icu 72 was released in arch repos late October, and node was rebuilt at the same time, but in your error, it's still trying to load icu 71. So either you did a partial upgrade (this isn't supported!) or you have an AUR/manually built version of node in your PATH that needs to be rebuilt.

@llde install the icu package

Hello! I'm unable to build the package because: node: error while loading shared libraries: libicui18n.so.71: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory. How can I fix this ?

llde commented on 2022-11-25 22:29 (UTC)

same as tatsumara I cannot join a video cal or watch a stream. I can however have a video in output myself, and it will be seen by other partecipant to the call. If I use electron16 I can even stream a window, but not watch a stream

tatsumara commented on 2022-11-25 18:18 (UTC)

watching streams and camera videos crashes discord, happens with hardware acceleration on or off, apart from this there's nothing eye catching in the output: [WebContents] crashed (reason: crashed, exitCode: 139)... reloading

@rctm Sharing and watching streams seems to be broken currently.

Hi, I just built the package, and I'm unable to share screen, any help? It keeps loading... https://i.imgur.com/zA5KQBy.png

Last update to (2022-11-10 / 0.21.0-2):

  • Don't strip package to not break Krisp noise supression. FS#76334 Probably should have been enabled earlier foreign blobs don't like to be stripped.
