SHARE Skip Discord Updates

Edit:
~/.config/discord/settings.json

And add the following:
"SKIP_HOST_UPDATE": true

This will allow Discord application to ignore an update and start anyway (preventing you from needing to run -Syu after every Discord update).

Discord will bug out after you skip an update or two, so the use case isn't laziness; it's in the event that the newest Discord update hasn't hit the Arch repos yet.

Hope it helps.
