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.

I think the feature has been disabled in the latest versions of Discord. There are other site threads about it speculating that they are "testing something." Testing being a shittier app, maybe.
Dang it still works for my friends on windows I can't seem to get it to work no matter what client I use on Linux
They've also never bothered to support streaming audio on Linux. Fwiw, if anyone reading this uses discord on Linux and has hit this, please add a comment/vote for this ticket. It already has over 3x the votes of the next highest Voice & Video feedback ticket, but maybe we just need it to compete with the 10k+ vote tickets.
Or create a viable alternative to discord, that would also be fine with me.
Edit: link to the issue
Webcord runs the discord website on a more updated version of electron, and supports sharing audio.
