Discord is the worst. Forums can be searchable for decades. When Discord is not cool enough to be around anymore, everything is gone.

It's unfortunate, but what can you do? It's where players are, for better or worse.

At least bridge to something the freedom-loving folks will use, e.g. Matrix, or (better IMO) Jabber.

We had Matrix bridge for a few months to some channels related to development. Pretty much no interest (except for 1 person that asked for it), no legitimate activity, yet, there were spammers showing up quite often.

Bridging also didn't map all the discord functionality so it caused some confusion at times.
