The Discord app on linux ubuntu desktop does not start the app. But you can make it auto start by following this steps.
Name: Discord
Command: /usr/bin/discord --tray
Now when you power on your PC the Discord app will open automecally on startup.
Much appreciated!
Thank you, brother. ###.
Thanks bro!
Hey guys, just as an addition to this guide, if you have discord installed through flatpak like I did and this didn't work for you, the command is "flatpak run com.discordapp.Discord" instead, the rest of the guide is the same. :)

Hi,
You can also just create a symlink of the .desktop file in ~/.config/autostart which is more accurate.
The .desktop file position will change depending on the installation (flatpak, snap, .deb, ...), the possible lookup folders are references in $XDG_DATA_DIRS
So, a one liner to run in the terminal is:
ln -s "$(find $(echo $XDG_DATA_DIRS | tr ':' ' ') -iname '*discord*.desktop' 2>/dev/null | head -n 1)" ~/.config/autostart

This is a much better solution. Thank you, @divad1196
The above cmd didn't minimize the client, this did for me:
discord --start-minimized
Thanks man!
