App auto-updated, replaced with Discord content? #69

Hewwo, I opened my CutTheCord app earlier (ThemedBlobs version 16/1087, installed manually from APK). It took a long time (20 seconds), and when it opened, it had been (partly) updated to latest Discord.
Notably, the app information text in settings had not changed at all, and the "CutTheCord Repo" button now redirects to Discord Support.
Is Discord now forcing app updates without user interaction somehow? or did I just horribly break something on my phone?
Please let me know if there's a way I can debug this further. Thanks~

Can you provide images of this? This sounds really odd.

I know that discord used to do remote updates on iOS, but with the way android app is, I don't see how it would be possible, though it's very possible that I'm missing something.

Definitely not possible to remotely update with the way it's set up, you'd need a way to update the binary and Discord definitely doesn't have the ability. Perhaps it's an AB test or didn't enable the patches?
