I ran the instructed commands and it failed

$ go install -v github.com/diamondburned/gtkcord4@latest

What distro are you on? Make sure you have a recent enough version of GTK.

[JacobFrodermann]

its Ubuntu 16 on 32 bit maybe bit outdated

[diamondburned]

That is very outdated. If possible, use the Flatpak.

Closing this since it seems to be a user environment issue and not a gtkcord4 issue.
