I installed discord with
yay discord_arch_electron and when I try to launch it with wofi it brings up an update prompt and when I click on it it closes.

I also tried installing with
pacman -S discord

And this method didnt even bring up the update prompt just nothing happens when I try to launch it.

Pls advise

Well. A long install happened but nothing was fixed

do pacman -R discord, go to .config and remove the discord folder, restart pc, and try pacman -S discord afterward

Already did that too

Even mentioned it in op

#

Just did it again and got the exact same behavior
