It would be wonderful if this were available to install and update via Chocolatey

https://docs.chocolatey.org/en-us/create/create-packages

Currently, the title bar is missing, meaning it is not easy to reposition Datcord. Also, when you open a link, it opens it in another invisible tab, meaning you cannot easily go back to Discord without using keyboard shortcuts.

theres not much to write, but when i try to stream on datcord, i get a quick snap of the thing where firefox asks for permission but since i cant really click on it on datcord i just start bugging out

add tamportmonkey support please. it would be cool

I'm on the 0.5.1 flatpak, and when I close the app using the x in the top-right, Datcord remains running in the background. When I try to open it again using the app icon in gnome, or by using flatpak run io.github.gamingdoom.Datcord, I get the following popup window,

and in the latter case, the following error,

Running in background

*** You are running in headless mode.

I must then close the app using gnome's background apps feature or killall datcord before I can open it again.

I am not sure if this is because of Flatpak or some other reason, but my status does not update in Datcord. So if I am playing music or a game, it does not show or reflected. Might be a bug. Please let me know any information you need to fix.

I noticed you have the flatpak in the README, but it isn't verified on Flathub. Could you verify it so that people who find it through Flathub know it's official? Here's a link to the documentation on getting verified https://docs.flathub.org/docs/for-app-authors/verification

Feature Request: Make application stop triggering Microsoft Defender SmartScreen

https://www.advancedinstaller.com/prevent-smartscreen-from-appearing.html
How can you prevent SmartScreen?

As a user, there is no way to influence which apps will show up on SmartScreen. There are some steps you can take as a developer to prevent SmartScreen from appearing to your users.

The reason SmartScreen shows up is because your application does not have enough reputation with Microsoft SmartScreen yet.

To build trust and gain that reputation, start by:

Submitting your application to Microsoft for malware analysis
Purchasing an EV code signing certificate
Purchasing a standard code signing certificate

I'm on the 0.5.1 flatpak, and when I click links in the app, they open in datcord, replacing discord. I can use my mouse's back button to return to discord. When I middle click a link, it opens in a new tab in datcord.

It appears packaging as a flatpak might have broken the feature requested in #22

As of version 0.3 the application opens with a fully white window that cannot be interacted with outside of closing it. I've tried deleting .cache files as well as removing all files in .mozilla and reinstalling with no luck on resolving this. I installed via the aur and have also attempted using the tarball which both had the same problem.

I just downloaded the new Datcord version, and it doesn't start up. I get this error in the terminal.

/tmp/.mount_DatcorPlQbWy/AppRun: 7: Syntax error: "(" unexpected

I'm using Ubuntu 20.4 with XFCe, if that helps.

This may have been addressed by #16 but will still need to be released once upstream becomes available.

There is a bug in Firefox that prevents audio streams from being closed even when no sound is being generated. See:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1743834

This causes an annoying fault where bluetooth multipoint fails. See (it affects more headsets than just the Sony one):

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/issues/2097

As a result, when datcord is running, phones that are paired to the same headset as the PC cannot produce any sound. I've tested this and simply closing datcord allows playback from the phone. Once datcord is back up and running and the phone audio stops, the PC will take over the audio and never let it go preventing the any subsequent output from the phone until datcord is closed.

If I'm reading #16 correctly, not much needs to be done, just rebuild/re-release as soon as Firefox 102 becomes available. However, there may also be something in the way discord/datcord functions that keeps the audio sink open forever while the app is running.

Makes new profiles

as the title says

it says in readme that its foss, but no license to be seen

I've had this happen twice now.

Great to see a desktop web app using Firefox instead of Chromium!

It would be super interesting to fork this into a generalised “desktop web app kit” with relevant parameters for developers to turn any web app into a desktop client using Firefox.

Choose a name, a URL, an icon, a few other parameters, and generate your Firefox-backed app with it.

Datacord could one day be only one of many other apps based on this.

"Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.

We can’t connect to the server at snap_name=firefox."

This only happens when you shut down after install and start the program up again.

It would be great to be able to open non-discord links in external browsers with one click. Currently, datcord will open links in a new window of itself (firefox, effectively). This is a little inconvenient since I mostly want to open them in my default browser. Work-arounds include:

1. Copy/pasting URL.
2. Installing an add-on such as Open With (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/open-with/) and using right-click menu.
3. Dragging the link to the preferred browser window. This is not bad with multiple monitors, but a single click would be nicer.

I think that's fairly self-explanatory, but if feel free to ask questions if I haven't been specific enough.

If you press the screen share button, nothing happens. It would be great if you could add screen sharing support

The current version of Datcord uses Firefox 92. Updating it or changing it to use diffs will need to be done soon.

i can believe you would remove my favorite feature

Hello, attached what the left side of the screen looks like.

Does not run on bionic because it was compiled on a too new system:

datcord: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.33' not found

Please compile on bionic or older. Thanks!

Reference:
AppImage/appimage.github.io#2741

Packaging this in .deb would be nice, as I wouldn't have to rely on appimage integration (as it can be finky at times in terms of pinning to a task bar.)

Also just found this project, absolute W I hate anything electron based.

It's not really an issue but I feel like it'd be a good feature, if somehow(Idk how I'm not that technical) you got Datcord to install extensions like shelter-injector on firefox extensions, or something else. Somewhat how ArmCord does it, would be really nice.

Also thank you for the work, I appreciate the firefox push against chromium monopoly.

Hey, I've noticed the latest version of Datcord has turned on letterboxing, but I can't find any way to turn it off.

Is there any way to turn it off using about:config?
