Discord in Game mode.

Hello! I tried bazzite for first time this week, Im trying the HTPC version on the gaming PC next to the 4k TV and its just beautiful! but... I miss a way of launching discord automatically and/or easily. Any hint? also, I tried to launch it first and then go back to game mode... but it closes every other open app (including discord). How did you solve this issue?
Solution
You need to go to desktop mode and add it as a non steam game. You can do this via steams desktop UI by going to games-add non steam game and selecting discord. Or if on KDE plasma you can simply find discord in your program list and right click it and select add to steam.

Then switch over to game mode it will be in your library under non steam games. And you can launch it from there. Then use the main side menu to return to home and launch whatever game. And then you can switch between the two at will with them both running concurrently.

Might need to tweak steam. I controller settings for discord to get it working best.
