You might not want it, but it's not like this is unexpected behaviour. Tracking the currently running game and sharing that information with your friends is an intentional, advertised feature.
- zeta0134 4y agoI wouldn't mind this feature so much if it were optional. However, while it's possible to disable the sharing of the information, as far as I'm aware the only way to stop Discord from being able to probe the running processes (so it can display them in the corner to the user) is to run it in a web browser. As such, the desktop apps do not get to run on my machines.
