Nick Congleton over on Linux Config has outlined the basics of installing Discord on Ubuntu/Debian, Fedora, OpenSUSE, Arch, and Gentoo. So, what does this mean for users of other distros? I can tell you they aren’t out of luck. “Thanks for the kind words! In addition to the deb, we plan to get it in a ppa and AUR.” According to the announcement Reddit post, however, it will also be available in the AUR for Arch users. The current download location is a staff GitHub repo linking to a rolling update server. This does come with a catch, however.Īt the time of writing Discord Canary is only actively supported on Ubuntu. This was fantastic news as now Linux users can take advantage of all the app has to offer without being forced to use the web browser version.

To top it off in April of 2016 Hammer and Chisel, the company behind the app, released what they are calling Discord Canary to the world of Linux. It has a thriving community, and it’s public API actively supports multiple languages for those who wish to extend it’s capabilities through web app integration and custom server bots.

It provides a whole slew of features utilized by casual users and gamers, and even for office work. One of the latest in text and communication apps, Discord has quickly become among the most popular apps since its release in 2013.
