This isn't really the right repo, but
I'd recommend for you to try using BetterDiscordCTL to install BetterDiscord. People generally have a better time installing with it. Here's its gist guide, too.

@SmolAlli It's just betterdiscordctl, lowercase.

I'm currently having crashing problems with it on NixOS, but I'm pretty sure that's BetterDiscord/BetterDiscord#1039 and not a betterdiscordctl install issue, at least from what I know so far.

Problem still happening on Debian 13, is there a workaround?
