I could even imagine someone creating a repo (not in COPR hopefully,

packaged in a convenient RPM, a bit like what is currently available
in the AUR.
Proprietary apps don't allow patching of their code. Recently
discussed in #flatpak:matrix.org.
That's why I said « not in COPR hopefully » ^_^. Client modification is
prohibited by Discord, but it is not really acting on that unless it
harms them (the AUR repo is an example of that). I wonder what is
Slack's TOS? Maybe with their approval, a COPR could be maintained
without any issue?
(Also, I just want to insist I am not pushing nor advising anyone to do
something breaking Discord's TOS without their approval, I'm just
thinking of examples of external demand for a Discord package in Fedora.)
Just wanted to add that if Electron is packaged for Fedora, packaging
the rest of the electron apps would not necessarily happen in the
official repos (due to the enormous work needed).
We will have another problem - different Electron apps require
different major versions of Electron engine.
That is true. Though, compat-packages could be an option for the main
repository anyway.
