#### Legcord is a custom client designed to enhance your Discord experience while keeping everything lightweight.

* **Standalone client**

  Legcord is built as a standalone client and doesn't rely on the original Discord client in any way.
* **Various mods built-in**

  Enjoy Vencord, Equicord, Shelter and their many features, or have a more vanilla experience, it's your choice!
* **Themes**

  Legcord natively supports theming of the entire app, you can easily import BetterDiscord themes and manage them
* **Made for Privacy™**

  Legcord automatically blocks all of Discord's trackers; even without any client mods, you can feel safe and secure!
* **Supports Rich Presence**

  Unlike other clients, Legcord supports rich presence (game activity) out of the box thanks to arRPC
* **Mobile support**

  Legcord has **experimental** mobile support for phones running Linux such as the PinePhone. While this is still far from an ideal solution, we're slowly trying to improve it.
* **Much more stable**

  Legcord is using a newer build of Electron than the stock Discord app. This means you can have a much more stable and secure experience, along with slightly better performance.
* **Cross-platform support!**

  Legcord was originally created for AArch64 Linux devices since Discord doesn't support them. We soon decided to support every platform that Electron supports.
