What have I done?
I have followed the guide provided in the readme.md. I have tried all 3 metodes of installing atom-discord, via the in atom package manager, via terminal with apm and I’ve installed it via source, none have worked.
I did noticed however everytime i close atom, discord doesn’t find it again. As it is launced with a new PID. an example. (You can find this when hovering over the “last played 22 minutes ago” in game activity section)
First time adding Atom to the game activity
/SNAP/ATOM/202/USR/SHARE/ATOM/ATOM --EXECUTED-FROM=/HOME/APOLLO --PID=10656
After rebooting Atom and adding it again
/SNAP/ATOM/202/USR/SHARE/ATOM/ATOM --EXECUTED-FROM=/HOME/APOLLO --PID=14133
“APOLLO” here being my pc username.

It means that discord-rpc could not find paths. (

~/.atom/packages/atom-discord/node_modules/discord-rpc/src/transports/IPC.js: Change line 125 to:Also, please double check discord is running while turning on atom. In most cases, message that could not connect means discord is not running.
