For the gamers here using Linux: what about Discord? One of my only social outlets currently is unfortunately through Discord with some friends. There any issues with drivers for headsets and/or Discord having issues?

Edit: Thanks for the responses everyone!!

When I have to use discord, I use it in the browser. I don't trust the app not to get up to no good.

The app is just a browser wrapper over the web app.

I'm pretty sure the browser has more sandboxing than a desktop app running as me. The desktop app could do anything. Firefox tries to prevent webpages from doing nefarious stuff.
