Luckily Linux is an open source system with tons of variety and tailor made environments for specific use cases whereas Discord is a for profit company that shoves unwanted features like Nitro down everyone's throats for their endless revenue chasing. So if it takes off because of gamers, we'll see lots of needed features and bugfixes.
