Maybe people will finally realize discord isn't the place for your projects documentation to exist
Wait, what are people using it for? I use discord for shooting the shit with people about video games and politics.
I've seen so many IT projects, associations, communities of minorities using discord in lieu of wikis, forums, documentation, etc. I personally know a marginalized community with a dire need of visibility, information and stuff that has everything locked behind their discord server and everything is about to be lost. It's both extremely sad and a huge "told you so years ago"
