Hey, I use Discord to chat with friends. Recently there had been an update to Discord, and I can no longer delete it from the Activities screen in GNOME. I’ve tried rebooting my computer, right clicking to view it in Software (it says it can’t find it), and it does not show up in the dpkg list.

Do you all have any ideas?

Thanks.

    Thanks for the reply! It is on Debian 10 and I don’t have either snap or flatpak installed.

        Correct, that returns nothing. I went to discord.com, clicked download for Linux, and selected .deb. Afterword, I ran it the .deb package using GNOME Software (or whatever the default software store is called).

        It’s kinda bazaar. I even manually searched for the .desktop file in /usr/share/applications and couldn’t find anything.

            So I saw a reference to flatpak on there. It looks like I installed it using flatpak awhile ago, and then deleted flatpak.

            So I reinstalled flatpak and removed discord. Thank you very much!

            @ajz@lemmy.ml, can I just say I think you’re amazing? Yeah, maybe this thread was not the most epic feat, but I’m speaking in general. Your technical prowess, your level-headed responses, your pro-privacy, pro-social values. I’d ask for an autograph but I ran out of space in my notebook :( ✌️
