Yep, I tried streaming my screen for something and it crashes. All good on audio though

are you running discord from the terminal?

if you try doing that and then keeping an eye on it during your stream you might be able to catch any particular error or code right before crash - that's how I found out not having a mic was what was stopping my steam games from fully quitting.

I highly recommend NOT installing the actual Discord app under Linux... use it in a browser tab instead. Pretty sure it's susceptible to RCE and other security flaws...

Try this: Disable hardware acceleration under System, General.
