Hearth
A Discord desktop app with Vencord built in. It's lighter than the official app, keeps Discord away from your system, and is run by its community.
What's different from the official app
-
Vencord built in
Plugins and themes work from the first launch. There's nothing to install separately or re-apply after an update.
-
Lighter and quicker
Much lighter and faster than the official Discord app.
-
Discord stays out of your system
Discord runs without access to your system, which is far better for your privacy.
-
Screenshare with sound on Linux
Share your screen or a window with audio, on Wayland too, and choose which apps' sound goes out.
-
Game capture on Linux
Share a fullscreen game straight from the game, so your framerate holds up while you stream. Works with obs-vkcapture.
-
Your Vesktop setup comes along
On first launch Hearth copies your Vesktop data, so you stay logged in and keep your settings.
Built on top of Vesktop
Everything Hearth adds to Vesktop, straight from its commit history.
