They provided a one-liner that turns Discord into a nicely wrapped Electron app in the forum discussion I linked earlier. With a one-line command it’s very easy to wrap Discord in a native app with almost all of the features of the official build.Ĭredit for this goes to Discord user Jesca. nativefier is an open-source tool that makes it easy to wrap any website in a basic Electron wrapper. Discord being an Electron app at heart though does present an interesting possibility: the ability to wrap it in Electron ourselves.Įnter nativefier. The community has gotten increasingly annoyed by this as Discord continues to not address their migration strategy. I have to assume they’re working on it, but the lack of communication and clear timelines is disheartening. Slack and VSCode have already made the jump which leaves one remaining: Discord.ĭiscord has been quiet about their transition plans so far and hasn’t responded to anyone on Twitter to address their timeline for migration. They perform extremely slowly and drain the laptop’s fantastic battery much faster than they should. There’s one notable exception to that though: non-native Electron apps are garbage. Almost all of the apps I use on a daily basis have been transitioned already to work on the new architecture natively, and the ones that are left on Rosetta are working perfectly fine for the most part. Over the past few months I’ve transitioned to using it as my main machine for all of my work. It’s the fastest and quietest computer I’ve ever owned. I recommend downloading their compiled DMG version instead of building your own. GitHub user yannhodiesne has put together an all-in-one package of Discord for M1 that has it all: screen sharing, voice calls, notifications, you name it. Presumably this will flow to the normal cannels soon.ĭownload Discord Canary here Update (Nov 2, 2021)Īs well as this method works, there’s actually a better method out there now for running Discord on your M1 (or M1 Pro/Max) Mac. As of today, Nov 24, 2021, Discord Canary is fully native on Apple Silicon! Instead of using one of these methods I recommend using the Canary build instead.
