check comments as well. (waiitng for it to be approved) -- basically method 2, remove the appindicator dependency

@nerdCopter, thanks!

libappindicator1 maybe not available for Debian 11 under this name.

You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
budgie-indicator-applet : Depends: libbudgie-plugin0 (>= 10.4) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libpeas-1.0-0 (>= 1.0.0) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: ayatana-indicator-application but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: gir1.2-ayatanaappindicator3-0.1 but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: gir1.2-appindicator3-0.1 but it is not installable
discord : Depends: libappindicator1 but it is not installable
Depends: libc++1 but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

Thanks @ikwen

This gist was not meant to solve a problem. This is just a note.

If there is no difference for you between apt and snap in Debian, you can use snap. I think so.

thanks, Its working

Thanks. For me, sudo apt install -f fixed the problem. my OS version is Ubuntu 22.04.

@zhangxueyii thanks for the confirmation!

I did:
sudo apt purge discord
wget -O /tmp/discord_instal.deb "https://discordapp.com/api/download/stable?platform=linux&format=deb"
sudo dpkg -i --force-depends /tmp/discord_instal.deb

@roadapathy, yep. 4 years have passed. Probably something has changed in their package.

This worked for me
