Is it possible to stop windows from getting focus in i3 window manager? X11

Is it possible to stop windows (applications) from getting focus? For example when I launch discord, it steals focus multiple times, while I would like to be able to continue typing in my terminal, this is very annoying. I use the X11 display manager and i3 window manager

Thanks Anyway

I looked further in the i3 man, it can be found herefocus on window activationand no_focus

or simply add

no_focus [all]
focus_on_window_activation none

to your i3 config file for me this didn't work at first because I had to update i3 for the all quantifier for no_focus.

updating i3 to the latest version on ubuntu is explained here
