Hello!
Was on my way to play with some friends when discord pop’d me with this unwelcoming box:

Just like this old post: [ How can i update discord? ]

Looked at arch repos and found that the new version was already out!
https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/discord/

When will this be updated via pacman and how can i make discord work without having some janky dual install?

Discord 0.0.62 is in stable branch. Update your system with pacman. If the update is not available, refresh your mirror list first.

You didn’t refresh your mirror list. All you did was view your mirrors status.

See Discord - ArchWiki

I always update Discord as soon as I can. Creating a topic every single time there’s an update is ridiculous.
