ArmCord VS BetterDiscord

I am using Armcord. It works with Wayland, although I have not streamed myself on Discord (don't know if the sound problem persists).

Armcord (utilise Cumcord comme base)

ArmCord is also similar but has mods built-in

You should check out ArmCord, it's a FOSS standalone client for discord that uses the web version, but it has better integration, as well as client mods if you want that.

Use ArmCord instead

I want to improve my privacy and now discord is a big border in front of me. I cant switch to matrix because my friends wont but i found some alternative clients which are blocking trackers and just using Electron like the original discord client. Do you know other good alternatives and why is yours the best? I found "ArmCord" and "discord-sandboxed". My question is can i trust them? Which one is better? Do you know more?

Sadly no, but its more privacy respecting than the regular client for sure. FOSS options include: https://github.com/diamondburned/gtkcord4 https://github.com/uowuo/abaddon https://github.com/terminal-discord/weechat-discord (weechat plugin to use Discord within weechat) https://github.com/evelyneee/accord (seems to be for M1 macs) https://github.com/ArmCord/ArmCord (seems to support AMD64, not just Arm64) https://github.com/khlam/discord-sandboxed (sandboxing for standard discord client) There are others I'm sure. One easier option is to run the Discord code in a newer version of Electron. This still isn't open source, but it provides better security and performance. Arch users can use the AUR package discord_arch_electron, other users can just follow the commands in the PKGBUILD for said package and figure it out. Hope that helps. Keep in mind even if your client is open source, Discord's servers aren't, and while there will be some mitigation of data collected, it'll still be quite a bit.

For discord there are some apps like ArmCord though I haven't had much luck getting it to work on postmarketOS (musl seems to have issues running electron apps right now).

I recently found ArmCord but haven't gotten it working yet. I may spend some more time on this soon.

(there are install instructions on the release page, if you want this but do not have vencord or betterdiscord check out their pages: https://vencord.dev/ or https://betterdiscord.app/)

I personally don't have a problem with them killing third party apps. Does Instagram, Facebook, Imgur, Twitter, TikTok, Discord, etc., allow third party apps? I honestly have no idea, but I assume they don't? I know things like BetterDiscord exist, but those are breaking Discord's Terms of Service (although they apparently don't use any API). From Reddit's perspective, these apps are stealing users away from their official app and making money off of Reddit, all while actually costing Reddit money. It just doesn't make sense.

Betterdiscord:https://betterdiscord.app I edited the midnight theme to choose my colour scheme btw so you can't just find it on one of the themes on the themes page (I can send the colour code if you guys want).

Try using a new install from https://betterdiscord.app

im trying to use BD files from github but dont know how to put them in i normally use it from betterdiscord.app so if anyone can tell me how to do it i thank you

Better Discord et some documentation

Here is a link to a library with these themes. You can easily install one of them by simply installing the program Better Discord and choose one of the themes in the library to replace the standard grey tone.
