From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hey all, had some weirdness with the native discord app on Arch today. Was trying to screen share and discord just noped, went hunting for logs but no dice. I tried a few different programs with screen share, but it just seems to completely nuke disord. Any ideas? Anyone else have the same issue? Any clue where I might find crash logs?

Edit: installed Vesktop, problem went away, thanks everyone for the input.

From what I understand Discord's screensharing was fixed on the Canary version (which is the beta version of Discord) but not yet in the stable package. Try installing that and trying it out.

The latest builds broke that for me. It crashes completely when I try.

Same. Was working a few days ago until the latest build where discord crashes. I'm on openSUSE tumbleweed

It was working great, but version 0.554 of discord canary has completely broken streaming for me as well, with discord completely crashing on trying to start a stream.
