I run those thing in the browser, where they belong.

If you have premium, there's probably a better native client.

Same here. At first, I thought I was going to get a better Discord experience with the dedicated 'app'. Nope. Another web app crammed into Electron, multiplying the overall browser footprint on my system. It now happily lives on in a normal browser tab where my ad blockers and user-scripts claw back local control of things.
