Question: I can't see game overlay like seeing who is inside the voice chat or alike. I also can't enable push to talk. I think I know the answer of my first question but I want to make sure.
No overlay and no global hotkeys on Vesktop
Understood!
Greetings, do you happen to have any software that allows me to delete messages received from the other party?
no, this is also a #🏥-vencord-support-🏥 question for future reference
the like list of all my servers doesnt showup and just makes a space for it like the 200 total servers thingy
also #🏥-vencord-support-🏥
okiee it still works on the app
it's fixed
Why it appears im from web-browser while i use vesktop
because it is a wrapper that loads the discord website
go into setting
its the last toggle in the vesktop settings tab
s
you cannot configure this
in the future please check what you’re saying before giving support
alr myb
i thought they meant the browser opening in electron and not wever browser they sue
Vesktop screenshare really doesn't work for me, it always loads infinitely for others and when I stop screensharing the entire app freezes and crashes. What should I do, and which should I choose between Discord from Arch's repo or Flatpak Discord if Vesktop cannot be fixed?
I already tried disabling/enabling hw accel and restarting but nothing happens feijoada
when vesktop fixed
works fine for me
hey there, ive been trying to install vencord on pop os 24.04 with the cosmic de but im having some issues, first i see this setup popup (image 1) but i cant actually click on or change any of the settings or at the very least nothing visually changes
once i click submit i get this other screen (image 2) which i presume is expected behavior
and after loading for a little bit it just stays like this (image 3) a blank screen (sometimes with the usual discord gray) but nothing happens, i tried installing the deb package, the flatpak, the appimage and the tarball but all of them showed the same issue, does anyone know why this happens?
its not appearing in settings
right click the small vesktop icon in the tray and select Repair Vencord
are you using a VPN?
nope
mods crush this person's skull
Lobotomised! 🔨
what tray
wait nvm
Are you on windows?
To better help you, we need your error logs!
To collect them, please
- open DevTools with
ctrl + shift + i/cmd + option + i - on the top right, click where it says "Default levels" and uncheck everything but "Errors"
- screenshot all errors and post them
screenshot
(Auto-response invoked by @austere panther)
do this when you get the white screen
nothing happens, im using the vesktop app btw
devtools doesn't open?
no, still just a blank screen, could i find error logs in a directory somewhere in my system?
i could also try to run it from terminal and give you the output
yeah give terminal a go
theres some stuff in my native language on the output, ill reboot my system real quick to change it to english
heres my output:

do you have the dbus service enabled?
systemctl status dbus
if it's enabled you may need to install flatseal and give vesktop permission to access the session bus
hi is it possible to get update info added to the appimage? this would let people use tools like gearlever to to manage updates
it looks like i do
ill try that
i enabled the d-bus session bus and d-bus system bus options under socket and i got this output from terminal but still just the blank screen, here it is:
liz@pop-os:~$ flatpak run dev.vencord.Vesktop

I actually don't know with this one, given you're on popos may I suggest the deb?
i had the same issue as flatpak but ill try again to see if anything changes
it could be an issue with drivers
do you know how i could check what drivers would be the problem?
also heres the output from running the .deb version from the terminal:

see if it works with the --disable-gpu flag
it did! thank you so much!
what gpu are you using?
gtx 1070
try installing the proprietary nvidia drivers
will do
i think i broke something in the process of doing that
did you use the deb?
I think there's a deb that debian/ubuntu-based distros use for the drivers
if someone is game changer add me back...

Do not ping other users for support (including replying with a ping to unrelated support messages). Do not send direct messages or friend requests for help.
ask @dapper stag! :)
yeah but i already fixed the issue and installed the nvidia drivers
it seems to be working now
oh good to hear
yup, sending this message from vesktop right now, thanks so much for the help! especially this late at night
enjoy
hii i just installed this but the zoom function doesnt seem to work? my eyes are kinda fucked and i cant see anything when its all so small :-( is there anything i can do ?
ctrl +
What's the terminal command to install vesktop with pacman?
it's in the aur so you can't just use pacman to install
use yay -S vesktop-bin (substitute yay for whatever aur helper you use)
Mind giving me a guide? I am new to linux world
search "how to install aur package arch", this is a bit out of scope for this channel
Aight i'll find out the way from here, thanks for the guide
Hey how do i turn off hardware acceleration? It seems to not be an option, or is it straight up not an option?
vesktop settings
Weird. I tried to search for it and it just doesnt pop up
Disclosure though, i am on linux using flatpack, so.. maybe thats the reason??
Scratch that, guess it just didnt want to show up in the search
Gracias

why my vencord web is not working ?

After about 2 hours trying to make vesktop run on bazzite (forcing wayland/forcing x11/trying flags/making distrobox of arc and trying to make it work there, repating with forcing wayland etc) I ran out of options. When I installed it as the first thing it worked, but then it just broke. Then I made another clean install and could not make it work. Am I missing something?
how is it not working?
doesn't open? infinite loading?
blank screen
vi vpn
Discord started blocking Linux VPN users, for whatever reason.
You have two options:
- Disable your VPN
- Spoof your user agent to a windows one. This may trigger more captchas. You can do this by launching Vesktop via
vesktop --user-agent-os windows.
See https://vesktop.dev/wiki/linux/tips/#making-command-line-flags-permanent
well it tells u the fix :p
i get flashbanged with a white screen for a few seconds every time i open vesktop, is there something i can do to fix this? multiple people (including myself) have asked about this issue before and have never gotten a response as far as i can tell
edit for future people with this problem: as i didnt get a response again (seriously why cant they answer this), i decided to do some poking around and discovered that disabling "splash theming" will prevent you from getting flashbanged
vesktop uses the Chromium alias in pavucontrol and so does my music streaming application tidal-hifi.
My screen recording software uses Pipewire as it's audio capture backend, but Pipewire thinks that both apps are called Chromium and thus captures them both under the same application audio capture.
Is there any way to make Pipewire recognize Vesktop as it's own application (by name) instead of just Chromium?
(Also if this is the wrong place to ask about this, I would be very happy to be pointed to the correct one)
Sorry to bother, Is this the correct way to change exec (created .desktop file in /applications, this should still work with a flatpak?
Exec=/usr/bin/flatpak run --command=vesktop dev.vencord.Vesktop --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland --user-agent-os=windows --enable-blink-features=MiddleClickAutoscroll %U
I still got blank screen with this :/

but this does not work when I remove disable gpu part.
but it works with -enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland
🤔
is ur vesktop outdated
vs dbg
Please share your Vencord debug info by running the /vencord-debug slash command!
it is not
alright, I got it working via gemini helping...
thanks a lot btw, could never imagine this was happening because discord was blocking linux + vpn
right click the tray icon and select repair vencord
tried that multiple times
on linux btw
vs dbg
Please share your Vencord debug info by running the /vencord-debug slash command!
does this work
How do i change the language of the VCNarrator, i have my dc on german but i want the narrator to be in english.
#🏥-vencord-support-🏥 please
Oh vesktop is an standalone app i though it meant vencord but in dc xD
is the way to fix the voice chat issue on Linux and having a vpn load before vesktop could load
you can disable vpn entirely or make ur vpn to not affect vesktop
and idk whats the voice chat issue
when vpn load before vesktop could finish loading voice chat completely stop walking, voice chat start walking after have restarted vpn connection
its seems like you have css that change the title, if you use 0 instead of 0px the settings window does that
is this supposed to be normal memory usage?? i dont remember it being this high but it started happening since the last update
and just now thought to ask
noticed inicially from my fans freaking out whenever its opened

I'm having trouble with arRPC. I don't have it installed separately, I'm getting the message below when launching from terminal:
[arRPC > ipc] listening at /run/user/1000/discord-ipc-0 [arRPC > websocket] listening on 6463 [arRPC > process] started Error: net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND at SimpleURLLoaderWrapper.<anonymous> (node:electron/js2c/browser_init:2:124518) at SimpleURLLoaderWrapper.emit (node:events:519:28)
Also getting the "Failed to connect to arRPC, is it running?" banner at the top
I can confirm that the discord-ipc-0 is there, readable, executable and my XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is /run/user/1000.
/run/user/1000 has 0700 access mode (drwx------) and is owned by my user.
I'm also running the AUR version, but same thing happens with the appimage
Vesktop doesn’t work in CachyOS Gaming Mode, any recommendations?
I’ve had some issues with Discord Web in Vivaldi, my favorite browser, since I can’t open it in Gaming Mode. I decided to try Vesktop to look for alternatives, but it doesn’t launch either, and I have no idea why.
Has this happened to anyone else?
wtf is cachyos gaming mode
CachyOS is a Linux Distro based on ARCH, it has the Gaming Mode of the Steam Deck where the interface looks like a Gaming Console
ah, that's just a steam feature
you can add vesktop to steam as a non steam game and it should work
but i honestly would recommend you just use normal desktop unless you have any specific reason
That's what I said, I already add it to my library, but the program is not working
set IS_STEAMOS=1 environment variable
if it still doesn't work, run vesktop with vesktop --no-sandbox
anyone else having stream an issue where the stream menu just kinda isnt popping up after you select a display to share (linux cachy kde), if more info needed lmk
no popup in call 
I don't have a VPN running, jic
restarting a few times (yes, a few times.) and leaving vesktop off for 3 minutes fixed it
This also solved my problem with my Browser, thanks
i swapped to the flatpak and it solved all the stuttering issue
vencord works on mac book?
Why does the scroll on middle click always stopped working after few hours?
Idk what triggers it to no longer work
I installed my vesktop from pacman
Wayland is enabled by using command flag
I have to restart the app to make it work again
wrong channel + https://vencord.dev/download/
Hello everyone, I have a simple, but not quite so simple problem. I have an iMac17,1 and a custom-installed SSD. It is impossible for me to install macOS 12.x because it does not work even with all the patches, etc., so I installed macOS Big Sur (11.7.x). I can't use OpenCore Legacy Patcher to update to a newer macOS because I need a reliable system. Unfortunately, the new update has broken compatibility and I have to stay on the last version of Vesktop below 1.6.0, but I can't stop the auto-update process. How do I disable it? I can only find the button for Vencord. It would be really annoying to have to reinstall it every time I wanted to use Vesktop.
Hi, for some reason vcs just don't work anymore in vesktop
You can join them but it gets stuck in dtls connecting no matter what region you choose
Hi, on vesktop I'm not seeing any audio sources when screensharing on archlinux X11
unfortunately you can't disable updates before 1.6.0
Also you shouldn't use old versions
If you really need it, build from source using whichever electron version still supports your OS
Read https://github.com/Vencord/Vesktop?tab=readme-ov-file#building-from-source
and run pnpm install electron@37 before building
As I said, because of Apple's policy, if I want to update my operating system, I am forced to buy a new device. I don't want to do that. The device is not the problem. I wish I could update my OS easily without breaking compatibility or recognizing an SSD. And I wish not every software developer kneels to this doctrine and breaks the chains with older macOS versions.
Then I will build Vesktop from source.
Thank you for your help.
yup! also had a css sinppit taht slowed it down
now its p much full speed no lag
I go back to discord. Sorry - but I go not the path of compatiblity hell. The newest node.js, so far npm, esbuild, electron and dmg-builder is not working on macOs 11.7.
Yes and this is going to be the theme for you going forward. Browsers already don't support your OS anymore meaning you will not get important security fixes for them. Discord will also drop support sooner or later. Canary is already one version away from dropping support
You have no choice but to upgrade your system sooner or later
did you figure it out? @sick goblet
somewhat? now i know it only happens when my refresh rate is set to 60 instead of my max of 144
why are u running at 60hz, laptop?
you could try setting vsync for vesktop in the nvidia/amd software
didn’t know there was a “right” channel
You make it look like it is on me. It is not. Apple is the problem. "You have no choice..." and said before, I could, I would. Yeah - but to go align with big companies is more important than free software for all. I get it.
you're the one who bought applecrap not me
Yes - this is on me.
Thanks a lot for your time. I know here is not the place for my anger. I am sorry.
more important than free software for all
Trust me we did not drop Mac v11 support just for the sake of it, it's just that Chromium and thus Electron did. If I could support old hardware I absolutely would, but unfortunately that't not possible for us
Vesktop always uses the latest electron version (v39 right now) for latest fixes and features
I appreciate what you do. Really. Maybe I'll got with linux on this "old" machine.
good luck!
Im running the RPM version on Fedora 43 (KDE) and whenever I'm calling with some friends there seem to be audio glitches from time to time. I'm not quite sure what is causing the issue, but I only have it when Im using Vesktop.. It only seems to happen when looking at someones stream or when I'm sharing my screen
the read-all button for the read all notifications plugin, and other stuff is appearing dark and hard to see. I'm not sure it's because of my nitro theme.
(Auto-response invoked by @grim lake)
oo sorry
want to add onto the voices mentioning this here, but calls on vesktop never complete, instead getting stuck on DTLS connecting.
for additional info, i am on Fedora KDE 43, and i'm using the workaround to make Vesktop run on wayland, which could potentially be part of the issue. I've been checking over the past few days hoping to see if there was a fix, but there hasn't been. considering that there's a decent amount of people mentioning it, i must assume that it's not just on my machine, but wanted to check if this is more widespread overall before opening a github issue about it.
I know for a fact it is Vesktop, as the official discord client with Vencord works just fine.
Interested in the impact of this, whether green gif thumbs are worth it lol.
wow I was having a visual jittering issue with the appimage and so far no such problem with the flatpak
have to work out the permissions so it opens links in librewolf but so far really nice!
Hey, what's with this "dark mode" thing going on with the text? I assume I can fix that with theme settings or smth?
Please share your Vencord debug info by running the /vencord-debug slash command!

That happened for me too, but am on desktop canary (might not matter though) and I dont have themes, but have some css (but it doesn't change colors or fonts)
(Yes, its latest version)
don't thinkso, or at least I didn't change anything since last time
Is it me or is the CWS (Chrome Web Store) extension of it corrupt for me
Or at least smth like tha
you're in the vesktop channel
update for my early posting, I had an issue with screen sharing that was simply solved by using the flatpak. how does that work? is the sandboxed env better for some reason for these kinds of things?
my xdg portal itself was fine, and I can select any of my monitors! haven't tried any with rich presence at all since I expect that to be broke bc flatpak but a lot of messy bugs suddenly seem fixed so I'm stoked!
are there any known issues with the appimage? I didn't see any notices when I went to install the flatpak. I had a lot of visual jittering, messages visually disappearing unless I highlighted the text again, and occasional hard crash when entering a vc. Then there was the javascript EPIPE generic error when I tried to screenshare, and the error in discord console was that it failed to generate a response for the screenshare request. I could go and get the exact print outs if that's of interest to anyone
Hello could someone help me with CustomRPC stuff, seems like i did everything but still doenst work
Oh, well I use the Broswer version of it so I thought it went here. Mb
Discord changed a lot of their colour css variables
Will be fixed in next version
i'm facing this issue as well, did you manage to find a fix for it?
just realized that this channel isn't a diff way of saying Vencord for Desktop, i just installed Vesktop and it actually fixed it it seems, or atleast for now 
<<Vesktop>>
Hello everyone, I just joined the server to have a look if there are any known issues regarding a screenshare issue that I've observed yesterday, situation is as such:
On the regular discord client (including vencord's patcher) when screen sharing browser window or entire screen with video playback everything seems to be working fine;
When trying that same thing with Vesktop client, you can hear yourself through the other's person screenshare (basically an echo of yourself), *note this happens on either on specific window or entire screen sharing.
Has anyone else experienced such an occurrence or it being just me and my friend?>
We're both using High Definition Audio for drivers(not sure if that helps).
Uhm, not really, I just reinstalled vesktop and all of the audio stuff, that sort of temporarily fixed it
thats how it is on windows
dont use vesktop on windows if you screenshare often
I have a strange bug on windows Vesktop. The little line with "someone is writing" is broken (CSS probably?)
I tried to disable CSS but no change. It doesn't happens in vencord (discord normal, no PTB/Canary)
known issue
oh god it's in stable now
Probably that the switch was not passed (I swap up to stable but maybe it doesn't switch if the update was downloaded? I dunno how the channel work)
Hello. I installed the appimage of vesktop and added it to steam to use it on gaming mode (nested gamescope) in my SteamOS but the screenshare isn't working. My screen gets black and only my cursor is visible
Is this the channel where I ask or research my question?
If its vesktop related, sure
Vencord related questions go to #🏥-vencord-support-🏥
ok thanks
Hi, I've been a desktop user for a while now, and I'd like to make it so that the games I play show that I'm currently playing them. How do I do that?
Hello, I just started using vesktop and got a question about the 'Discord Titlebar' setting. I currently got it set to on and expected it to use the default discord titlebar. Instead I'm getting one without the minimise, rescale and close options and its showing the OS controls above it. Is this intended behaviour or not? Also small thing, is it possible the change the taskbar icon Vesktop uses? My ahh a little bit autistic it turns out :(. If not ill prolly get used to it anyways. Uhm thanks in advance with kind regards from the tedder frfr idk why this so serious 🙏
install xdg-utils
it should work
if it still doesnt work, it's an issue with your browser/system and not vesktop
run vesktop from command line and you should get useful info
Please help, has Twitch RPC been removed from Vesktop?
I'm having issues getting Vesktop on Linux to work with a VPN. I've been to the #1257025907625951423 forum post several times and followed the instructions to spoof the OS settings to get it to work, but it's not working. When I run the locate command in the terminal, I don't find /usr/share/applications/vesktop.desktop. I find /var/lib/flatpak/app/dev.vencord.Vesktop/... and /var/lib/flatpak/exports/share/applications/dev.vencord.Vesktop.desktop. Editing both files in the text editor and adding vesktop --user-agent-os windows under Exec=/usr/bin/flatpak doesn't work for either of them. Am I not supposed to install Vesktop via the flathub store?
Here are the Vesktop files on my computer. Maybe I'm editing the wrong one, but I don't know which one is the right one.
use flatseal to add arguments
flatseal? Like flatseal --user-agent-os windows %U?
Oh I see
I assume I toggle under filesystem "All system libraries, executables, and static data" (filesystem=host-os)?
I don't see that option at the bottom of the screen when I select Vesktop
I'm still confused as to how to add command line arguments in flatseal.
might have been mistaken
maybe we could add a VESKTOP_ARGUMENTS environment variable so you can just set that
Like this?
no that's not a thing
I was saying maybe we (developers) could add a environment variable to the program
it's not a thing currently
Oh
I'm wondering if I would have better luck manually downloading and installing Vesktop instead of the flatpak. Sure I won't be able to use Flatseal, but maybe I would have better luck using a text editor.
i asked about this then forgor i did, but it seems it didn't get an answer anyway so another one
Vencord: v1.13.7 • c8ccf4b (Vesktop v1.6.1) - 10 Dec 2025
Client: stable ~ Vesktop v1.6.1
Platform: Win32
update
I'm also experiencing the same issue. I can confirm that it works in other apps (and was working in Discord last I tested a month or so ago).
is it just me or does a lot of the quickCSS stuff just not work now
canary?
either PTB or regular, how do I check?
open settings and scroll to the bottom
ptb
see if it happens on stable, discord updates that break css always hit canary/ptb first
(this also isn't really a vesktop specific issue so it's best to use #🏥-vencord-support-🏥 next time)
mb, how would I swap to stable?
you're on vesktop I assume?
yes
np
it'll be up to whoever wrote the css to fix it once these changes hit stable
I dont even know where I got this css lol, guess i'll have to find somewhere that has it
Heyy
in some servers with a lot of channels, my weak pc is lagging
are there plugins or ways to reduce this lag ?
(or tu make sure the lag does come from the number of channels)
thanks imma look at that
Something strange about that titlebar setting, I had maxi/minimize, close buttons on my discord titlebar enabled by this setting only with the appimage. It went away when I started using the flatpak. I'm not sure which is intended!
it shouldnt matter if you use the flatpak or the appimage, the flatpak is built from the appimage
the native system titlebar only shows up if you have the custom discord one disabled, but like it says you have to fully restart vesktop for the change to apply
okay I'm silly. I figured out what you have to enable to get those controls back 
I had the window frame disabled in vencord settings, popped over to vesktop settings and lo and behold the titlebar setting there was unchecked
It just fixed itself somehow for me lol. All I did is shutdown pc, go sleep and start pc.
oh sweet, glad it worked out!
you probably just didnt do a full restart of the app

looking back at it
I totally didnt
🔥
Gotta do smth to save 200mb ram in this economy 🙏
i think i am up to date
in app shows no updates and repair vesktop from tray didn't change anything
weird, vencord is on 1.13.9

yeah it's not wanting to update i guess
guess a full reinstall is another thing to try, though this error has been present ever since i installed a few days ago
ok well now it's up to date
earlier yours was at .7 so i thought they fixed it
nvm
oh i guess im a little blind
now tried both "reset vesktop" from system tray, and manually deleting vesktop folders in appdata and reinstalling but to no avail
werid it j ust works for me, make sure you give it gpu acceleration permission

I have a silly question : what font does vesktop request ?
I'm in the process of writing my fontconfig, how do I make sure I can set prefer directives for whatever vesktop wants ?
it doesnt request any font in particular
you just need a working emoji font
alternatively, you can just add this css to make it load Twemoji remotely:
@font-face {
font-family: "TwemojiColor";
src: url("https://vendicated.github.io/random-files/Twemoji.Mozilla.ttf");
}
:root {
--font-primary: 'gg sans', 'Noto Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif, TwemojiColor;
}
well i have one, I probably just fucked up somewhere when trying to make sure it's available to apps.
who get old theme
Thanks for the snippet, I had tried to make that but I'm bad at css so my attempt was kinda ass, I'll probably stick with that for now
are you using flatpak?
getting custom fonts to work with flatpak is pain
it only checks some font dirs
no, I have a font I manually installed, it exists, i have a little stub in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ dir trying to add the dir where my font is to the fontpath
However, it seems like it does not end in the Font Path, according to the output of xset q.
My friend in I both switched to vesktop (windows version). We both noticed a significant drop in audio quality in vc. Also when streaming, VC audio gets picked up by the stream and causes an echo for everyone viewing the stream. I've seen Pipewire-related solutions to this for linux and fixed it on my linux machine, but there doesn't seem to be a documented solution for windows. Any suggestions?
there is no solution for windows unfortunately
When will custom keybinds be available?
The default ones do not work if DS window is not in focus, and run as an administrator does not resolve theproblem
unless you want to make your own fork and merge (and fix) the pr not anytime soon
I have it enabled but no dice on links opening how they should, not sure why
Hey. Is there any plugin or something like that to view the images in a discord channel as a thumbnail gallery?
Specific use case is that there is a channel with wallpapers I follow, and I just want to see the images as thumbnails without any of the text conversation. Thanks in advance!
no, thats really only a thing on the mobile discord client
but you can also search and filter by images in that specific channel by searching
in:#channel has:image
yeah it breaks after my pc is on for a while for some rason
apologies for bumping such an old message, however this an almost exact description of my current problem. is anyone aware of potential solutions?
i just installed vesktop on arch hyprland but emojis/icons/other langs are not working, i fixed this for my system by downloading noto fonts but how do i fix this in vesktop? thanks for help
are you using flatpak
you and me brother, you and me.
I'm still figuring out where tf did the glyphs outside of emojis come from on my old system
Ok so according to the "rendered fonts" computed property of the text on my old system, FreeSerif (locally installed) did the major part of the glyphs on my old system.
Imma install this and ping you if it magically solves everything
i did "yay -S vesktop" so i think yes
No, flatpak is different package manager
Yay is just AUR helper
got myself the full noto / freefont / dejavu fonts front my old system, manually "installed" them to my /usr/local/share/fonts dir, and after fc-cache & a vesktop reboot I have everything working.
Imo, try a manual install.
My audio seems to glitch when people are streaming, I'm not sure how to fix this...
wtf is this new discord update
support channels are not the right place to complain about discord's changes
Is it possible to fix the screen sharing issue (black n green screen)?
Hello, I am currently on Arch with Plasma-Wayland. I used Vesktop for quite a while, then I ran into an issue where my vesktop app would never fully finish loading because it would get past the actual loading screen and then just go all grey and never get past that. One yay -Rns and reinstalling some config files later and everything went fine. Earlier today, I was mid conversation when my Vesktop bricked and then needed to be terminated, only to run into the same bug I had forever ago. This time, total reinstalling doesn't work, neither does reinstalling electron. I get these errors when I run vesktop --enable-logging. Does anyone know what happened and what I can do to fix this? I can see that the errors are Wayland specific, but for whatever reason forcing it to run with XWayland doesn't seem to change anything.
have you tried to use X11
I would like to but I am currently partway through a system backup and can't reboot
I am a bit of a linux newbie btw so don't be surprised if I'm just stupid lol
run this command in the terminal vesktop --ozone-platform-hint=x11
seems to throw the same errors
do you have a vpn
Yeah I'm on proton
try this command vesktop --user-agent-os windows --ozone-platform-hint=x11
Oh shit that worked
Thank you!
for some reason discord block VPN user only on Linux no problem
try to use this command instead vesktop --user-agent-os windows
you have to find a way so it will use that command on auto start if you use that
Yeah can't I add that to the shortcut on my desktop and taskbar?
I'll just do that prob
I can't help you anymore because I'm using hyprland I have pretty much forgot everything about kde
that's alright
ty!
Hi, I've been a desktop user for a while now, and I'd like to make it so that the games I play show that I'm currently playing them. How do I do that? Anyone who wants to send me a response, tag me or reply to this request for help.
What os
I said what I wanted to say.
Well what you wanted to say isnt enough information
So, on regular Discord, almost always when you play a game, it will tell you what game you're playing. With Vesktop, that doesn't happen; it shows what other people are playing, but those other people can't see what I'm playing.
-# windows phone?
ohhhh ok, I´m windows
Then yeah its just a funny arrpc issue with not much you can do
The translator was saying something else to me.
Game detection on vesktop is not great in my experience
yea i tried using the site and it didnt fix my css my icons r small, the top bar is back and the tray is overlapping the list
(Auto-response invoked by @grim lake)
im on vesktop
Themes are a vencord thing
how
its css
Do you know of any other app similar to Vesktop that fixes this problem?
Nope
Applied by vencord
How do I get in touch with an admin?
Well, then my only choice is to find another app that isn't desktop.
if you are having voice chat issue just turn off and on VPN and let discord to restart on its own
can anyone give me the kemomimi dancing gif
can anyone give me the splash art for old vesktop, the gif, the fox, why is it turned to VC I cannot understand, but I cannot find the actual gif either
Vencord: v1.13.9 • 21e6178 (Vesktop v1.5.8) - 15 Dec 2025
Client: stable ~ Vesktop v1.5.8
Platform: Linux x86_64
Removed for copyright reasons
from vesktop? sure, can I, as an individual, ask the gif from you, another
I want to stick with tradition and keep IT
I don’t have it
It was posted a few times here however
Ive searched for gif yet after couple of pages I couldn't find it
There it is
lifesaver
with all good intentions, maybe this should be pinned here
I don't think I would be THE only one to ask for it back
How do I use the F8Break feature?
don't crosspost please
It appears that fake nitro has some issues with webp(or user error), specifically it tries to give a .webp emoji the extention of .gif instead. I'm not quite sure if this is a caching issue exactly, but the initial gif returns nothing.
The first instance was what pressing the emoji by default gives. The interesting part of this is that fake nitro actually displays it correctly on my client, but when someone without it sees they don't see it at all, which makes sense because of the .json response I see when trying to visit the gif version. If I change it to .webp it properly embeds. Maybe do a periodic check to ensure the emoji uses .webp, or if the emoji changes to .webp, find a way to determine that the cached url is no longer valid, if you use a cache? Or do I have to erase a cache somewhere to get it to properly update? Not quite sure so I came here.
hello, why am i getting no sound on vesktop?
is there a fix around having no vc audio when changing the user agent os to windows from linux?
did you ever get a fix for this? I'm also running Fedora 43 KDE and don't have notification badges. Its rather annoying
I've given up
usually adding this to exec worked and fixed the zoom/scale issue
settings in vesktop was always broken but now even playing with the config file doesn't work
what change there might have been that broke this
and what must be done even
even in the appimage without aur settings are borked lol
and both recently updated appimage and aur vesktop had this as running name, for some oblivious reason
previously on this topic guys with roles recommended ctrl + 0 for zoom in, no it doesn't work like that lol, imagine if your zoom is 0.65 and you can make it 0.40 with ctrl + * but ctrl + 0 only gets it back up to 0.70
playing with vesktop settings manually either does not help or work at all either
there are vesktop/settings.json and vesktop/settings/settings.json
and adding zoomfactor to either of them does not work
how
i am more confused than raged at the machine
FYI
launching via terminal with vesktop --force-device-scale-factor=1.5 works
it fixes the zoom bug glitch whatever
but when I add --force-device-scale-factor=1.5 to exec file in .desktop it doesn't work
(I have no idea)
im not sure if its windows or what but my theme on windows looks like this much lighter, but on linux (both using the latest version) the theme looks and works properly
(Auto-response invoked by @grim lake)
i use vesktop
but ?
im confused why is it vencord ? whats the point of vesktop support then
vesktop is the custom discord app you are using
yes ik that much
vesktop adds better linux support, is generally lighter than discord, and has better privacy
vencord does all the plugins and theme stuff
oh
in the pins of this channel
the nodistractions css snippet broke and it seems i cant fix it with class updater. Could someone please help me, my eyes hurt from all the colors on the screen
I thought vesktop didn't show game presence? It is constantly showing that I am playing minecraft when I don't even have the launcher open, and when I shut down vesktop the presence disappeared.
yes, vesktop does show game presence with arRPC, but its not as good as the desktop client
do you have any apps running that are .jar files? from my experience from using vesktop it used to detect my shimeji as minecraft because its a .jar
The only thing that might be triggered as a .jar is my java updater, but I don't have any games open at the moment. Just running tools like steelseries, voicemod, or vrcx.
try closing that and see what happens
I'll have to dig in my processes cause it's not on my taskbar unless it is actively updating.
you can also use this plugin below to hide it from your status
I can't say what I want to say cri
I can't install that
I didn't build vesktop
just installed officially
that plugin is in the official build
It's like SO slow
i'm stupid
but where is the activities tab then cause the only tab is activity privacy, which is not what I'm looking for
and idk the actual id
you can find it at https://www.presencedb.com/ and then blacklist it in the plugin settings
This is the average electron app, so yeah expect that to happen
The plugin webpage says you can configure using the registered games and activities tabs but this is the only thing visible under activities
vesktop doesnt have that so you need to go to the plugin settings to blacklist the activity id
use the site i linked above to find it for minecraft
also another weird thing is that I do play minecraft occasionally I just don't understand why its showing right now when it isn't open.
again most likely its because of some java app running on your computer, as you said you have the java updater running so it might be that
I turned arpc off. I have a vanilla client open for my rich presence stuff. I just interact with my vesktop client. I wish vesktop was stable enough I didn't have to run a normal client for stuff vesktop can't do
No, disable vpn or use official discord app, discord in non-chrome browser, or different os

Quests cannot be completed on the vesktop app
I had to download the original discord app in order to start the quest
another example
yes because vesktop uses discord web
so is it better to use normal discord app with vencord installed?
if you want to complete game quests yes
I thought vesktop was a custom fork of the app that integrated vencord
discord's source code isnt open so there'd be no way to make a fork of it
decompiling would violate their copyright wouldn't it
what would be the point of that? if you want to use the discord app, then use it
why would vesktop just be a clone of the discord app
how do install this to porgram files pls help (appdata fucking sucks)
pls ping me if u have an answer
well that didnt last long
css broke again lol
damn css broke again
I need to learn how to do css tbh
download the .zip and place it there manually
you don't
damn
in the setup you should be able to customise location
but install to AppData
why do you want Program Files
program files will likely have permission issues updating
also if you're on windows you should be getting help from #🏥-vencord-support-🏥 instead of vesktop, as vesktop is Linux only iirc
its not
oh
it doesnt let me choose
and then i should be able to download anywhere
even in program files
correct?
anyone else has issues of vesktop just freezing up and you need to restart it really often?
im having this really often right now
Im on arch linux using the AUR package
https://vesktop.dev/wiki/linux/troubleshooting/#vesktop-freezes-after-getting-pinged-or-messaged
-# 1 mutual friend 
thats not my issue
it just randomly freezes up for no reason
im experiencing this same issue im running arch+hyprland
I have no idea which CSS this originally was
typingtweaks plugin
should be fixed now though
shit, where is the css snippets thread for it?
or whatever
Guessing I just wait until the chrome extension is fixed?
Well, this is the vesktop channel
ah, wrong channel then. Still just wait until the chrome extension is fixed?
vext
The Vencord Chrome Extension is up to date! (v1.13.9)
It is
then no idea why it isn't updating on my end
there hasn't been a version bump so it hasn't been submitted to the web store
💀
i should make vext check for this
do
this has been happening to me too on Kubuntu 25.04, have seen a lot of people complaining about dtls connecting issues but no fix or anyone else acknowledging it :/
voice chat works perfectly fine when using discord in firefox but all of a sudden yesterday the vesktop app started having dtls connecting issues in every vc i join no matter what, already reinstalled vesktop and updated
vesktop crashes every time I try to view an image
also I can't seem to find vesktop settings anywhere in my settings
try right clicking the tray icon and selecting 'Repair Vencord'
np
hi did you fix it
No window buttons
the "No Titlebar and Frame" option is disabled in KDE window settings
disable discord's titlebar in vesktop settings
vesktop has taken up 100% of my battery in the last 24 hours
this is absolutely diabolical
the official discord app did less 😭
energy impact, this is how percent programm spent to work for last 12 hours???
the vast majority of this is going to be discord
try messing with settings like hardware acceleration etc, see what uses the least power for you. don't use AlwaysAnimate and similar plugins
Any update on how people can contribute towards the Linux+VPN issue? And to be crystal clear, that is not me asking when it will be fixed. It's me asking how can I contribute to the fix happening.
cant
there is nothing to do about it
the fix is to use the user agent command line flags to change user agent
Sometimes I am able to use Discord by turning my VPN when I launch it, letting a channel load, and then turning it back on---
Ah, okay
That blows 
how to have transperent discorddd
Rcp wont work in discord anymore idk why
i dont even know ehere the logs are for that
seems fine to me idk
Is the method the same as you do for regular vencord when trying to make it so you can use non standard plugins with vekstop
all you need is in the docs
wdym
not u
so do the same steps to build it as in the regular vencord docs
(for vesktop)
mhm
Thanks! Was just double checking
it doenst work with the server externaly or internaly
ok it seems that onyl the linux native games arent found by rpc
after recent vesktop update, screen sharing may appear frozen to the other users during calls, and vesktop may freeze when leaving a voice channel
why does this issue occur?
os - arch linux
de - gnome (wayland)
yes, this is the % of my battery in the last 12h
it has used
i disabled AA
is there any other notable intensive plugins?
i have NoTypingAnim on
Hi, does anyone know how to make the "advanced voice activity" option appear? I use a program for my microphone and I need to disable that setting, but it's not showing up where it should be. Thanks for your help.

this is less of a support question and more of a general one, but does anyone know why tuxinal's pr for global shortcuts has received what is effectively radio silence for a year and a few months now? i've seen a lot of progress over the past year, and at several points it was fully functional, but it seems like the pr went entirely unnoticed. this has been a feature requested quite a bit over the last while, so the unwillingness to even consider it and lack of information is somewhat sad to see.
i mean it’s currently broken
and PRs are reviewed in free time so rarely
currently, yes, but it wasn't for a long time
other prs tend to at least get some sort of communication, but this one has received none for almost two years
is that not at all unusual?
Hello, i'd like some help concerning screen sharing !
I'm on KDE Linux w/ Wayland, and whenever I screenshare it defaults to "None" for audio source, which is not the default behaviour i'd want for that sorta thing
Are there any ways to change that ?
Oh and BTW it really sucks that we have to come to discord to submit an issue, that's what GitHub issues are supposed to be for
github issues aren't intended for support requests, they get very spammy and it's overall much easier to provide support here
For Arch Linux, is it recommended to install the vesktop-git when planning to install a source-compiled Vencord or is it the same for vesktop?
vesktop-git is out of date at the moment
Ah good, ok thanks XD
What changes between vesktop and vesktop-bin? I didn't know there was a -bin package
Unless it's malware? XD
bin just downloads a binary
Ah ok
I mean, everyone should ideally always read PKGBUILDs before installing them 
I do
(specifically it downloads the .rpm and repackages it)
And what about vesktop-electron? A custom electron for Vesktop?
uses whatever version is installed on the system
Ah
So if I plan on installing a custom Vencord on Vesktop, do I need to build Vesktop every time or is it like just installing Vencord and it'll pick Vesktop as like Discord's electron app (but in reality it's Vesktop and not discord)?
I notice that sometimes the screenshare on Linux seems to cause the mouse to become jittery ingame? Is there a fix? I notice it primarily for games going above 60fps which can be super jarring when running games at 200+fps
Nvm I don't need to, I found all the information here: https://docs.vencord.dev/installing/#building-vencord
I'm using X11 and I see that Vesktop doesn't get a game that uses fullscreen mode, is it normal?
EDIT: I switched to Wayland and it supports games in fullscreen
And yes, I tried with the official Vencord build (without userscript) and it still doesn't find the fullscreen game
Is it just me or vesktop broke jamesdsp after a couple of msg notification ?

check your css
I didn't add any CSS because I just downloaded Vencord (and I used FireFox extension before)
With CSS you meant the QuickCSS right?
Wait I probably figured out why
it might be ClientTheme doing that
this has been fixed already but we haven't made a new vesktop release
next update
i thought it got fixed when it was happening on just vencord?
curious
Yeah I though so too and I just disabled it & reloaded discord but nothing worked because... Well Bilboofan said it lel
if you want a fix now, add this to your quickcss
:root {
--header-primary: var(--text-strong);
}
```\
should fix it

if so, please put me on 🙏
no
what does disc have to do with me syncing cloud stuff?
is this kind of plugin atleast being worked on ?
it stops the oauth to authorize vencloud to access your account info from working
oh
im trying to download vencord and it keeps saying i have a broken discord install ive already completely deleted discord and reinstalled it
would u let me upload a thingy so i can locally sync plugins?
#🏥-vencord-support-🏥 and send a screenshot
backup & export section
yes
is there any way i can see read reciepts of people in discord?
can i send it here
why😭
dont send your settings here because they can contain sensitive info, just send it in a private server or something
i think against discord rules, no ?
because its not possible
i wouldnt recommend it, transfer it via bluetooth or file or if you really must send it on discord, dm it to yourself
what info can it contains thats bad
okay, thank you very much @torn oasis 🙏 , have a great day buddy!
ok ty everyone
can someone go to vencord support and help me pls
calm bro these people do it for the kindness they arent hired staff 😭
why is there black bar here?
which black bar?
do you see where it cuts the server in the corner
wait it might have to do with my de
AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO GETS DTLS CONNECTING ISSUES?
whenever someone's like this i remember the "SPILLED BAJA BLAST" post
arRPC broke again recently. Not sure which update broke it, was working great before. Which release do you guys recommend for nobara (fedora based). appimage, rpm, tar.gz, or flatpack? arRPC doesn't work with flatpack right?
nevermind, switched to appimage from rpm and that fixed arRPC but Where Winds Meet somehow is not added to arRPC yet even though it's been out more than a month
I thought it was established that if you do this, vc won't work and that in itself was unfixable?
it works fine
Trying on my end and still having DTLS Connecting issues even after updating. Tested on fresh vesktop installs and on a a mobile hotspot in case it's my wifi, nothing connects to VC at all. Connecting to a VPN does work, running in browser works (but then nobody sees my streams), and running the regular discord client with vencord installed also works (but then nobody hears my streams even on Canary; running Linux), so I have no idea if there's a fix for that
I noticed my snippet to stop the message popover buttons(reactions, reply, forward)stopped working, but I also noticed this in the plugins menu. Are they related?
hi, is it normal that obs virtual camera doesn't work on vesktop?
Hi, I saw that there already was a closed issue on the repo for the legacy rainbow icon, but I wanted to ask if having an option in Vesktop itself to use the legacy icon (instead of downloading it and applying it manually, yes I know thats only like 2 extra steps) would possible?
I have an issue to report: Hardware acceleration (under vesktop settings in the settings menu) does not show up in search. Other than that I do have a question. How do I add shiggy back to the loading popup?
I notice that sometimes the screenshare on Linux seems to cause the mouse to become jittery ingame? Is there a fix? I notice it primarily for games going above 60fps which can be super jarring when running games at 200+fps
It's debilitating and arguably one of the reasons I don't wanna stick with Linux, so I'm really hoping to get an answer or a fix ^^
- what os are you on
- Vesktop Settings > Customize App Assets and download the
here
remember to enable pixel art mode for a nicer look

Also, thank you.
Yeah you cant for vencord stuff too, normal
anyone know how to fix middle click autoscroll pasting text?
Asking again:
I'm on KDE Linux w/ Wayland, and whenever I screenshare it defaults to "None" for audio source, which is not the default behaviour i'd want for that sorta thing
Are there any ways to change that ?
not that I know of
unfortunately i have tried all of this and it doesnt work
are you using X11 or wayland
Well then maybe there should be a way ... It's not normal that that is the default behvaiour...
Game activity of games in my games folder (windows 11) is not coming. Steam game activity is coming but other games (if u know what i mean) are not being detected 🙁
it was working on discord and there isn’t a add game option for manually adding game to be detected
And for another reason I did recently reinstall windows and even after that no fix, so i don’t think the issue is on my side
cant do much about that, vesktop activity is not as great as stock discord
imo its a useless feature anyways
posting it here for you since automod is too sensitive
Thank you
..it's blocking part of a url that the official installer uses?
the word devbuild
.
on vesktop its just a visual bug
this message isn't disappearing (it's supposed to)
No workarounds or anything? In discord I think there was a feature to add a game manually so that it would get detected…I can’t find that here as well.
This is a good plugin idea…
not a vesktop issue because vesktop doesnt have the overlay
yeah no thats not a thing in vesktop
: (
use the desktop client with vencord if you care that much about game activity
oh ok
Desktop client? U mean actual discord?
Nah I need ram

maybe yall could consider making a plugin for this, I think it’s a great idea
this is as good as it gets with arRPC
For manually adding games to be detected
It dosent need to actively scan everytime idk
I can manually start it or something…
I hope you’ll consider: )
Cuz that’s the only thing I see that this dosent have from the desktop client
Hey!! It's been a few weeks that i can't stream on Vesktop anymore :(. Like i click on the stream button, chose my screen and then nothing happens and the stream button doesn't even work anymore until i restart my client
yeah, hi guys sooo got an issue. i got vesktop flickering weirdly like on attachment, see ghostly react above
when hovering a server, i can for like 0.01 nanoseconds catch this tooltip, is this meant to be able to be hovered somewhere?
Discord bug, and not related to vencord or vesktop
not rly my question, like how else can i see this tooltip
am i able to get that info somewhere else
hover over the home icon next to the server name
ah yea had to turn off my css, ty
heya, im having a bit of trouble here concerning autoplay of gifs, i have reduced motion enabled, but it seems that some gifs are somehow able to bypass this... most notably those made with the petpet plugin
these gifs also continue playing when vesktop isn't focused
is there any sort of fix or setting that i may have overlooked?
this issue isn't present for me in vencord, however it is on vesktop
thanks in advance, please ping me if you have any answer that may help <3
rich presence just doesn't work
also whats the current development for global keybinds?

awh
Vencord: v1.13.11 • e5df9b3 (Vesktop v1.6.1) - 20 Dec 2025
Client: stable ~ Vesktop v1.6.1
Platform: Linux x86_64
ok thanks
is there any methods to make it work or do i really just have to live w it
ok i was using flatpak vesktop that's why
does vesktop auto update with deb version
alr
yes
thats why i was thinking if there was a plugin to manually add your games to be detected or even manually starting would be nice... rn it only works with legit games., like from steam,etc not others if you know what i mean...
hey, I got no audio sources when i try to screen share, it used to work before, im not sure what could have caused this.
hey tried having a quick look around but couldn't find much, currently experiencing a problem with vesktop where streaming my game is very laggy for the viewer, and every once in a while the audio with glitch and almost like a system hang sound for a second. and my stream is hard capped at 30 fps, even though it's set to 60 in the stream option
i have both video and hardware acceleration on.
is there like a hotkey to open settings or something or way to update it top fix this
i think its probably game activity toggle, but that works on normal discord with vencord, just vesktop has the issue
right click tray icon > repair vencord
I notice that sometimes the screenshare on Linux seems to cause the mouse to become jittery ingame? Is there a fix? I notice it primarily for games going above 60fps which can be super jarring when running games at 200+fps
It's debilitating and arguably one of the reasons I don't wanna stick with Linux, so I'm really hoping to get an answer or a fix ^^
My vesktop randomly logs out whenever my screen goes to sleep (linux).
I have NoDevToolsWarning but it didn't actually work
I dont know if its a feature or a bug but even if im doing stuff on my pc. If im not focused on Vesktop's window it just doesnt see any actions and sets my status to idle. How can i change it? Thats annoying.
The window with the resolution and fps selection does not appear?
i dont have a tray icon
i dont have a trya
tray*
nope
open devtools (ctrl + shift + i), click the console tab and paste:
await Vencord.Updater.update();
(window.VesktopNative ?? DiscordNative).app.relaunch();```
that made it update but i still have that error in the bottom left, also i tried disabling game activity toggle in the json but that didnt make it go away

erm ok on vesktop i was using a different account, i switched to ludis to post in this channel on vesktop and when i clicked it i saw
i shouldnt be on a custom vencord build tho
Did you build vencord from source?
yea but vesktop shouldnt be using that, i did that to test making a plugin but i think i reverted all of that
Well it is because otherwise the pop up wouldn’t be showing
i cant open settings tho thats the issue
Why
this is in the bottom left
[Cachyos] Wut
There is no tray icon
Hang on trying a reboot
Ok rebooting somewhat helped, i'm not getting the error but now i'm stuck on a gray screen
should be able to try this now?
i tried it a couple times, nothing happened
im not sure then, im not well versed in linux so this is about as far as i can help
tried it again now, the app rebooted and returned me to the gray screen
guess i'll try a reinstall then
Do you use vpn
yuh
Then disable it
vi vpn
Discord started blocking Linux VPN users, for whatever reason.
You have two options:
- Disable your VPN
- Spoof your user agent to a windows one. This may trigger more captchas. You can do this by launching Vesktop via
vesktop --user-agent-os windows.
See https://vesktop.dev/wiki/linux/tips/#making-command-line-flags-permanent
Is there a way to make Screenshare not suck for M&K games?
ok so i managed to get it to work but i can't screenshare
nothing happens when i try to do so after selecting the portal and confirming the settings
currently on the wiki page tryna troubleshoot even tho it worked on other clients so i'm open for ideas
everything checks out like i thought
maybe another reboot?
ok so as it turns out it's an issue with the audio share
Did you find a way to repair Vesktop ? Having the same issue
turning the audio share on makes the screenshare fail
why does vesktop suck when streaming games? is there a fix?
Define “suck”
apparently when i stream my screen to my friends if its a game for them its like 2fps
Tried toggling hardware acceleration?
does it have to be on or off?
Try toggling it and see what work best
for some reason it doesnt show up in vesktop only in regular discord
Vesktop settings
oooooh okayyy lemme try that
yeah i tried toggling and apparently is equally as bad when i stream a game its weird
When streaming any M&K game, the mouse stutters like crazy making it super hard to play anything
I notice it most in FPS games since it's debilitating and puts me off fully committing to Linux
Controller games are completely fine surprisingly so it's probably how it's capturing the mouse (either that or wine/proton)
Hey, I got no audio sources when i try to screen share, it used to work before, im not sure what could have caused this. Anyone know a possible fix?
audio works on the normal discord app too
since when did they finally fix the issue with voice volume constantly lowering itself??
any plugin to make discord more faster beacuse typing is so slow on pc and it freezes randomly
?
Ok so as it turns out, trying to screenshare with audio forces the audio on for any subsequent screenshares within the call, wether audio is enabled or not. What it means is that i have to enable audio on screenshare, which fails the screenshare entirely, then do a default screenshare, which streams with audio
Kind of an odd process, but i can work with it until a more propper solution is found
Enable hardware acceleration (but the benefits are negligibile if you have beefy CPU)
Use less themes and css
Still having it so no.
i use 0 themes
after turning off vencord it feels normal
Hey is there an option to reduce the CPU (and RAM but thats not rly important) usage when minimized?
It uses a lot more usage than usual Discord and it's really annoying to close the client during specific games
You can just close the window using X button and whenever you need it use the tray
no the usage doesnt rly go down
Like
You cant really change the usage of discord
100 mb memory usage difference
oh damn
is there plugin that i can see whos on mobile pc console other platforms on my friend list?
this is a #🏥-vencord-support-🏥 question but platformindicators
turning AlwaysAnimate off didn't help :/

i'm actually also having this issue now, did you ever find a fix?
same behavior but it's on macos
for more info, it sends me to /login?redirect={/channels/whereiwas}
so reloading does nothing
turn off rich presence
in settings.json, maybe settings Vesktop Settings
can anybody tell me whats wrong with this?
- wrong channel
- don't run the installer as admin
oh you're just cross posting, don't do that.
I've been seeing this error for awhile now
Not sure if this was already addressed
disable rpc to fix
Thank you!
Is there a reason I can't stream with audio on Vesktop?
guys it might be a dump qustion but how do i inject vesktop.asar to discord
Why would you need to?
I am having a problem where every once in a while, vesktop will freeze, then my screen will go black and trigger a graphical reset, this has only happened ever since i upgraded to Fedora 43 yesterday
Will send console logs whenever it happens next
for the moment, these are the errors that pop up after it happens
It still popped up after I disabled RPC
Weird
How can I have vesktop-1.6.1-1.fc43 utilise my desktop environment's font? On firefox-146.0-3.fc43, I've set font.name.monospace.x-western to what fc-match sans-serif returns. However, I presume that in Vesktop, a preference exists? (Otherwise, I presume I need to do something like :root { font-family: system-ui !important; } as a CSS3 override?) I ask for accessibility reasons.
for the moment, these are the errors
css, yes
css, yes
this is lowkey 2 months ago but this is happening to me aswell, did you find any fixes 🤔❓
this only started today, it's supposed to be dark but the active now tab is weirdly highlighted in some way and the discover / add server buttons are squared instead of round. it's got nothing to do with my custom css theme, i tried disabling it and it stayed the exact same.
vesktop has been being really buggy for me as of recent. Every so often it crashes and goes to a white screen that I can only fix by restarting the app. Also as of yesterday my mic just randomly stops working in call. If I go to audio testing and test the mic in the app it still works but the green circle won't light when I'm in call and no one can hear me?
^^ I brought this up a while ago too
Hey I installed Vesktop with the .deb package on Kubuntu 25.10 and it works fine on X11 but on Wayland Screenshare doesn't work at all
Screen share button is completely unresponsive besides throwing this error in console when clicked:
Uncaught (in promise) AbortError: Error starting capture
i want to make a fully costum vencord attached to discord with the same folder so no need to install
I think I restarted my laptop and it fixed it?? I don't fully remember, sorry
So for some reason the aur vesktop gives me a proxy connection failed error
guys why do when i screen share i get one of the three: either a green screen or very little bright screen with a lot of ghosting or just it not loading i tried every option from 1080 60 to 720 30, tried turning on video hardware acceleration and also repairing and restarting vesktop many times??? please help!
this has started happening to me. Idk how recent it is but it only happens on linux. I have vesktop installed on windows and it connects just fine on there. Regular stock discord also connects just fine on linux. Sometimes i manage to connect by relaunching vesktop and changing voice channel region but it becomes a hassle when you aren't the owner of the server
is it normal for vesktop to always be "using" the microphone after joining a call on macos
i have to quit and restart the app for the microphone in use icon to go away
same here i actually came to complain about this issue
im on fedora linux and currently ill be in a call it would randomly disconnect and do this for a couple of seconds or rtc disconnect
the quick fix is to leave the call and join back but it becomes annoying
Does Vesktop support desktop wide overlay for voice chat? I don't see any settings or plugins for it. Using Fedora Linux/Wayland.
I use proton VPN, and when it's active, vesktop can't load any messages. Is there something I need to configure, or is it just incompatible?
Likely related to this

Ah, I see. I guess it wouldn't be Discord if they weren't making the linux experience a little bit worse, haha. Thanks!
at least now I know what's causing it
when screensharing on macos in vesktop my screenshare heavily lags, its almost like a slide show. this does not ocur in the base client
Hello, I suppose this is a client issue rather than Vencord's, but I can't get Discord RPC from vscode to work, specifically vscode, all other programs display the RPC correctly, but both extensions i tried, it didnt work. Maybe its rather a vscode extension issue?
, but both extensions didnt work, which makes it a bit weirder tbf, i have vesktop from flatpak
Turns out using Flatpak version was the issue, i got it fixed now
update to this i guess. I have tried changing user agent to windows just like a why not however this hasn't solved the issue. Im unsure why but sometimes it only works to connect to a channel once. If i disconnect from that channel and attempt to connect to that channel again i get the DLTS Connecting issue again.
say when starting vesktop with the --user-agent-os windows in the terminal, does anything else need to be added
if memory serves the .desktop file has an %U added to the end which i'm not sure what it does
nvm managed to find what it does
AlwaysAnimate is off and i'm going insane
Vesktop is causing some sort of audio glitches for me on Fedora, I'm using the rpm and I'm not quite sure how to fix this..
I'm willing to share logs and whatnot, I'm just not sure where to start tbh
guys how do i fix my discord going blank?
By disabling vpn, or using official desktop app
i pray for a better world where vesktop doesn't crash if autostart is enabled
It shouldn’t
Whats up yall is vesktop a good idea on windows cuz mostly see ppl who use linux or mac talking abt it online
Like are there any audio issues or streaming or anything
Does vesktop replace my discord installation?
no
Oh no problem then... i rarely stream which seems to be the biggest issue so if i gotta do that ill just run normal discord
on windows streaming is buggy unfortunately
hi I'm using vesktop, is it possible somehow to make it so on my steamos legion go it shows on rich presence what I'm playing?
it should support rich presence out of the box, unless you have the flatpak
I have the discover app one
that would be a flatpak
sadge
you can install vesktop-bin from the aur
ty
but I don't think it'll work with for example emulation
show the game I'm playing
that would depend on your emulator
Fixed the DTLS stuff for me, it was caused by docker, stopping docker service allow me to connect to vesktop
Just did that on my end but still having the same issue, even after uninstalling Docker straight up plus a few reboots for good measure. It's still just Vesktop that has it too; not browser or other discord clients
