Open MWF2 opened this issue 1 year ago • 5 comments

just to question, it can support for old windows os like xp and vista, for those that running slow computer like atom netbooks, even slow computer with old cpu like pentium 4 for those that it cannot open any web browser to open discord site?

Unfortunately this implementation cannot be ported to Windows, as it is a Mac OS native application written in Objective-C utilizing AppKit. I may write a Windows version sometime in the future, though.

But this can be ported to Haiku instead.. Because haiku don't have any client to connect to discord, at least in the easiest way.

@dosdude1 Please consider writing the Windows version in a more platform independent way so it can be compiled for other OSes as well (Like Linux or BSD for example)

@dosdude1 How about using Cocotron or GNUstep? They provide subset of AppKit and some other Mac OS X APIs.

Porting this to Haiku would probably be as complicated as porting it to Windows. Can't you just open discord.com/app in Falkon for now?
