Skip Discord Updates on Linux
If you use Discord on Linux, and installed via a .deb
, you might have seen
this annoying pop up every time you start Discord:

This seems like Discord requires you to upgrade before you can start the client, but that’s not the case.
To skip updates on start up, add the following key to ~/.config/discord/settings.json
:
"SKIP_HOST_UPDATE": true
Next time you start Discord, it won’t check for updates.
