    Fixes Hardcoded tray icons in Linux

  • As mentioned above, the Discord desktop app uses some hardcoded 24x24 tray icons which look horrible at any sane screen resolution. Things like Hardcode-Tray exist, but don't work out of the box with NixOS as far as I can tell, so I made a home-manager activation script for it. It's not perfect by any means, but it seems to work well enough.
