Legcord – custom Discord client

Legcord is a custom client designed to enhance your Discord experience while keeping everything lightweight.

This is free and open source software.

Features include:

  • Standalone client – Legcord is built as a standalone client and doesn’t rely on the original Discord client in any way.
  • Various mods built-in – enjoy Vencord, Equicord, Shelter and their many features, or have a more vanilla experience.
  • Themes – natively supports theming of the entire app, you can easily import BetterDiscord themes and manage them.
  • Made for privacy – automatically blocks all of Discord’s trackers; even without any client mods.
  • Supports Rich Presence – unlike other clients, Legcord supports rich presence (game activity) out of the box thanks to arRPC.
  • Mobile support – experimental mobile support for phones running Linux such as the PinePhone.
  • Uses a newer build of Electron than the stock Discord app.
  • Cross-platform support – runs under Linux, macOS, and Windows.

Too many of these Discord clients are around, all serving no purpose. And the Discord service itself is a privacy nightmare.
