By the title, I mean like how it just has "discord", like what runs when I click it? as I need to add some custom args to it because the default doesn't work due to wayland and so I need to have custom args for it to work for me

specifically, I have to run discord like so flatpak run --socket=wayland com.discordapp.Discord --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland for it to load

Under the hood the launcher uses gtk-run, which should use desktop files. You should be able to copy the discord desktop file into your .local/share/applications and modify that I believe
