betterdiscordctl: Install BetterDiscord on Discord installed with Flatpak.
$ sudo betterdiscordctl --d-install flatpak install
try on your machine

This command is composed of three parts:

  1. sudo - This is a command that allows the user to execute a command with administrative privileges. It stands for "superuser do" and is commonly used in Unix-like operating systems.

  2. betterdiscordctl - This is the name of a command-line utility used for managing BetterDiscord, which is a popular extension for the Discord chat platform. It allows users to customize and enhance their Discord experience with themes, plugins, and more.

  3. --d-install flatpak install - These are additional arguments or options provided to the betterdiscordctl command. Here's what each part does:

    • --d-install - This specifies the command to install BetterDiscord.
    • flatpak - This specifies the package format to use for the installation. In this case, it is Flatpak, which is a technology for building and distributing Linux applications.
    • install - This is a Flatpak-specific command that tells Flatpak to install a package.

So, when you execute this command with sudo, it will use administrative privileges to run the betterdiscordctl utility. It will then install BetterDiscord using Flatpak as the package format.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
