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.

Wayland and audio is fixed, but only on the canary branch for the moment, this isnt lazy either, they changed the whole screenshare flow to suit linux's permission prompts

Do you really talk to your friends through email?

The bigger Discord becomes, the more irrelevant it is to me.

I've been using the canary branch exclusively for about a year because of audio issues on the main one, I would genuinely be ecstatic if they finally ported over the fix because for some reason the canary branch refuses to auto upgrade and I have to do it manually every time.

Their company is going downhill ethically and uphill financially, I kind of wish the alternatives were as good a service but thats going to take time.
