For issues related to applications that are not games.

VSCode/VSCodium

Microsoft Visual Studio Code can be problematic to run in some distros. I recommend running VSCodium with a patch to add the marketplace from Microsoft's VSCode to it.

To do so, you may use Flatseal to add the following environment variables: VSCODE_GALLERY_ITEM_URL=https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items
VSCODE_GALLERY_SERVICE_URL=https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/_apis/public/gallery

Discord - issues with screen capture in general

  • Cause: the Discord port for Linux is a bit haphazardly maintained. There's a history of bugs that go away only to come back again.
  • Fix: try Vesktop (from Flathub).

OBS Studio - microphone clipping/popping noises after some recording time

  • Cause: it seems to be related to some latency control issues on PulseAudio.
  • Fix: use the microphone device directly from ALSA, with the application installed from your OS' repos, not Flathub or Snap Store.

FireAlpaca has only AppImage avaliable for download

I converted that to a .deb package that you can install following instructions here.

Unity Hub (for game development)

While you may be able to find workarounds for other distros, it only officially supports Debian/Ubuntu and Fedora/RHEL. I strongly advise sticking to those if you need it.
