Discord got banned where I live. I’m trying to find a way to route Discord to a specific proxy, or in other words warpring it around a VPN. I do not want to run a VPN system wide as this will significantly decrease internet speed, and also could affect connectivity in many games. Anyone has an effective way to do this? I’m running Bazzite on my system, and I use Vesktop as the Discord client, which is a flatpak. Any help is appreciated
Some VPNs allow you to select apps that are affected or not (proton does). That might allow you to route discord only via a chosen country.
Not the Linux version unfortunately
It does (not sure how well), but it seems to be a paid feature. Found under Settings -> Split tunneling.
I don’t see it, care to elaborate?
I found it in the settings:
Under “Features”:
Did you look into network namespaces? With these you should be able to dedicate a namespace for the VPN adapter and then move discord into it, at least with wireguard it works flawlessly.
you can use nftables or
ip routeto route discord’s IP addresses through a different interface like a VPN, alternatively you could launch discord with proxychains, there’s many ways to do it
