Download NowWhat is Legcord?
Legcord is a free, open-source alternative Discord client that works on Windows, macOS, and Linux. It uses the official Discord web app inside an optimized Electron shell, so you get the same servers, messages, and features—with less RAM usage, built-in themes and mods, and stronger privacy. No injectors or separate mod installers are required: download Legcord, log in with your Discord account, and enable the options you want in settings.
Whether you're on x64 or ARM64 / AArch64 (including many Linux devices and ARM Windows machines), Legcord aims to give you a lightweight Discord experience with support for Wayland and X11 on Linux, native-feeling screensharing on Mac, and optional client mods like Shelter and Vencord for themes and plugins.
