- **Standalone client**
ArmCord is built as standalone client, it doesn't rely on original Discord client.
- **Various mods built in**
Explore Cumcord/GooseMod/Flicker plugins and their features!
- **Made for Privacy**
ArmCord automatically blocks Discord's trackers.
- **Faster than normal Discord app**
ArmCord is using newer Electron than stock Discord app. This usually means increased performance and more stable experience.
- **Designed to work anywhere**
ArmCord was initially created in mind to run on Arm64 Linux devices. We soon expanded our support to more platforms. We plan to support every platform that [Electron supports](https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/tutorial/support#supported-platforms).
