From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

WebCord is an "alternative client" for Discord, although it's just running the Discord webpage in electron. Recently it updated its electron version so it supports sharing audio as well as video.

I tried it out today on mint (x11, pulseaudio) and it works flawlessly.

Ive been using armcord with the vencord base, it's super solid and not as resource intensive.

Had to remove Armcord due to wild CPU usage.

What did you switch to, what memory usage consumption caused pause and what settings were you using?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I switched to not using Discord. I didn't have a memory issue, I had a CPU issue. It was using like 25% of my CPU and causing my fans to go crazy. Not sure what "settings" you're referring to.

Sorry, misread that part. I was referring to plugins, which can increase CPU usage, and backend, which you can choose between vencord and webcord.
