Describe the Bug

Rich Presence doesn't connect when both apps are installed through flatpak (I suspect it's because discord is).

Here is a link to a simple fix for it: https://github.com/flathub/com.discordapp.Discord/wiki/Rich-Precense-(discord-rpc)

Steps to Reproduce

Install both apps from flatpak. Test if rich presence is detected in discord.

Anything else?

Cider 2 is not officially supported in flatpak, and the nature of flatpak is to sandbox apps, which prevents the applications from communicating with each other over rpc. The only version of cider on flathub is cider 1 which has been archived and is no longer supported.
