Really cool project I found, and is working great for me so far. You can even build a custom version of WebCord using one of the open PRs which allows you to share audio on a screen share. Used it with friends last night and it ran solid for hours.

One thing that annoys me about discord is the screenshare popout, ideally I'd like to pop each screen out individual instead of only being able to popout the entire block. For example I'd like to keep webcams on my left monitor and have someone's shared screen in full screen on the right. I get round this by having two accounts but would be good to have a native solution

WebCord is a working native solution.

The Devs had also upgraded a lot of Electron stuff and security problems that the official Discord client doesn't do, as well as fix a lot of bugs and issues that Discord haven't bothered with.

Oh, and if you're using KDE Plasma, it uses the Qt file picker and not the GTK one.
