All-in-one voice and text chat for gamers that’s free, secure, and works on both your desktop and phone.

Snaps are confined, as such Discord may be unable to perform some of the tasks it typically does when unconfined. This may result in the system log getting spammed with apparmor errors.

Granting access to the system-observe interface when in the snap will enable the features, and thus reduce the logging.

snap connect discord:system-observe

This snap is maintained by the Snapcrafters community, and is not necessarily endorsed or officially maintained by the upstream developers.

INSTALLATION STEPS IN MANJARO

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Enable snapd

Snapd can be installed from Manjaro’s Add/Remove Software application (Pamac), found in the launch menu.

From the application, search for snapd, select the result, and click Apply.

Alternatively, snapd can be installed from the command line by, copy this code and paste in terminal

sudo pacman -S snapd

Once installed, the systemd unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled,

sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket

To enable classic snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between /var/lib/snapd/snap and /snap,

sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
