New permissions requested by Sober (The main Roblox linux client) (self.linux_gaming)

Hello, recently, the Roblox client "Sober" has been requesting more permissions since the latest update.

  • Screen content
  • Personal subfolder of execution app/com.discord.Discord
  • Personal subfolder of execution discord-ipc-0

Does this seem suspicious to you?

(I'm not taking into account Roblox's privacy policy, which is bad, just the Sober client)

my guess is the screen content permission is for roblox’s crappy builtin video recorder and the folders for discord rich presence
