Hi,
it used to work like this :-(
I'm actually struggling to make it work again.
Electron broke things again regarding Tray integration and click use on linux.
What is your desktop environment ?
Under gnome you may want to try different extensions.
I had some success with this one
https://extensions.gnome.org//extension/615/appindicator-support/
but may cause issues depending on other extenions. (for instance native ubuntu one). You'll have to try.

It mostly depends on your Desktop : which one do you use ?
Under gnome you may want to try https://extensions.gnome.org//extension/615/appindicator-support/ and see if it gets any better.
Personally I use mainly PopOS which uses Ubuntu Appindicator extension : clicking on the tray icon does not start a new one but opens the menu instead (was intended to be a right click). It's lame but at least does not start a new one
Maybe I should at least try to prevent the "launch a new one", but first I need to reproduce this behavior.
i am using Arch Linux with hyprland as wayland compositor. clicking on icon will show the window of currently launched instance. i use rofi drun menu to launch application and if i launch from there it creates a new
but in case of discord it does not start a new instance it just opens the window of current window instance.
Ok ! got it, I was focused on my Tray problems but it's something else and easier here.
I'l implement a protection to prevent multi- instance asap, this one is easy (and a good idea !)

That will be nice of you mate.
but for me tray is working as expected.
Arch package should be ready within a few hours, version 5.24.20-1
New instance won't start but I'm not sure if the existing one will get the focus back.
If you use the "default" settings, meaning X.Org implementation of electron (and XWayland to support it), it should work as expected.
I tried myslef native wayland support : a notification tells me existing app is ready, but no focus is given.
I hope in your case it will work fine!
Open the window instead of creating a new instance.
