Would be nice if they also didn't just cut you out of the system every minor version update until your distro updates the repo. At least that's how it seems to work on Gentoo.

I can't imagine there's actually much in the underlying application that changes compared to their web app

Hell, the moment you start it up after an "Update" it download 6 more freaking updates!
It does this on Windows as well but they don't make you download an entire new package, run it's install, then install more there.
Tell me why they couldn't do that and then require a full package update for major changes like if the electron wrapper needs an update as opposed to just the Discord portion of the program.
