Could just be me, but the Discord app is full of glitches and random pauses for me. The app is better on my phone, but on several Linux distros the feel of the application is just off to me. Switching servers and channels has a tiny but noticeable delay that I haven't seen native applications have.

Unfortunately, there aren't many native applications any more. At this point I'd prefer a Windows application that works in Wine over yet another "cross-platform" Electron webbrowser-with-builtin-website.
