Can't I go one week without having to uninstall and reinstall the damn deb file?

I just tried opening discord a minute ago and got that lmao. Since I am on fedora I can't use the deb file. Often pointing around on my system I found where all the discord files are and I made a script that downloads the discord .tar.gz file and moves all the files to the right places. Every time I get the prompt I run the script and it updates discord for me (:

#! /usr/bin/sh

wget -O discord.tar.gz "https://discord.com/api/download/stable?platform=linux&format=tar.gz"
tar -xvf discord.tar.gz
rm -rf discord.tar.gz
sudo rm -rf /lib64/discord
sudo mv Discord /lib64/discord
