WebCord is an “alternative client” for Discord, although it’s just running the Discord webpage in electron. Recently it updated its electron version so it supports sharing audio as well as video.

I tried it out today on mint (x11, pulseaudio) and it works flawlessly.

    I would caution anyone using a client mod like that, since it is technically against Discord’s terms of service. To be fair I’ve never heard of them banning anyone for that, but it’s worth noting. Webcord is generally a much safer option.

      You’re technically right but discord really doesn’t care as long as you’re not doing anything harmful with the client mods. Big YouTubers like No Text To Speech publicly promote and use Vencord and never get banned, I think his server is even a discord partner.

        Yeah it’s fine right now, but these companies are prone to changing their minds. I think it’s a good option but also wouldn’t put it past discord to suddenly decide to crack down one day.
