  1. Use the flatpak. Or 2. Use the web app (discord.com/app) Or 3. Don't use discord

I'd say webcord, iff the last option doesn't work, ofc.

At least on arch it'll tell you there's an update and prompt you to install the deb file but you can just update it with pacman and you're good to go. Usually end up doing my pacman -Syu when discord yells that it needs an update

And on the holy Arch wiki there's a way to disable the update prompt, so you don't get locked out of discord when it has update but it hasn't arrived into the repos yet.
