I haven't used discord on sway yet, but from some reading around as i will likely be upgrading pcs and switching to sway (wayland) from i3 (xorg), i think it is discord doesn't play nice with wayland.

That's correct, on X11 Discord works... relatively fine, ot least that used to be the case for me.

More precisely, Discord uses an ancient version of Electron which doesn't support most of Wayland's shenanigans.
