That's all handled by Electron, which doesn't support the auto updater on Linux.

https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/api/auto-updater https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/issues/1138

Though I don't know if discord uses this specifically or rolls their own. Discord seems to auto update just fine until it's time for a bootstrap update.

Ok but why so many bootstrap update when the most basic shit like "screen sharing with audio" is broken?

[–] joyjoy@lemm.ee 1 points 6 months ago

There's a secret json option to disable bootstrap updates. The flatpak turns this on.
