Hi, I followed a guilde* to install discord on my Manjaro GNOME. However it is not listed as an installed program (I can’t find it with the ArcMenu or ULauncher etc.). At the same time I can launch it via the terminal from any directory (‘dis’ even autocompletes to ‘Discord’).
How do I get it to show up there?
[*]: I can’t enter links here. The guide essentially lets you extract the official .tar.gz file into /opt, creates a symlink to /usr/bin/Discord, edits the .desktop file and copies it to /usr/share/applications.
I did that originally but yesterday there was an update that wasn’t in the official repo yet and I couldn’t use discord. Also I think it is time I learned how to install .tar.gz apps
Ok, they probably updated it by now and I’ll probably also switch to that. But can I really expect the Manjaro repo to update their packages as fast as the original one? I need discord for university and I can’t wait a day before I can use it again.
Probably lightcord is an alternative if discord really doesn’t work again. Lightcord looks and works exactly like discord (myself i don’t miss any features on lightcord which are on discord), but you are not locked out if an update comes…
