- Analysis Summary
- Tests a new v1 list when Discord identifies running games and non-game applications.
- Why It Matters
- This can affect how reliably games appear as activity and how often ordinary applications are misidentified.
- The direction of the change requires the actual list differences or measured results.
- Detailed Description
- The default state downloads the existing game and non-game detection lists.
- The comparison switches those requests to the games-v1 and non-games-v1 files on the same CDN.
- Discord uses these lists as input when deciding whether a running program should appear as a game or another activity.
- The current client does not include the list contents, so it does not establish which applications would be added or removed.
