Discord for Windows on ARM64

Once again I find myself scouring the support and reddit posts for any inkling of a native ARM port of Discord, support for which was added to Electron nearly three years ago. Following the native port for the M1 relatively recently I am hopeful for some renewed interest in an ARM client for Windows as well, however if there is something in the works you all have been rather silent on that front. I was a little hopeful for Canary, but I didn't find anything ARM specific.

I have a Surface Pro X, and while Discord runs, it does so quite poorly. The performance is far better in a browser or even using Node.js and nativefier to create an ARM64 Electron app from the web app, but neither of those support screen sharing, which is something I use a lot as a Nitro subscriber.

So, I am petitioning for a proper native ARM64 client for Windows so that I can properly enjoy Discord on the go rather than being severely hampered for (seemingly) no reason. A couple of seconds of lag between calls is not entirely sustainable.

  Totally agree. 

  PSA to any supportive devs that simply lack access to a Windows ARM machine but do have access to a Mac with an M-series processor, check out Parallels, as it uses the ARM build of Windows when installed on those machines.
