Who are we?
We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.
We are one. We are legion. And we're trying really hard not to forget.

They went out of their way to move to Discord, a highly closed platform, so I find I don't give a shit about their opinion/profit model/etc.
Morally it's the same as if they took formerly open-source code and re-licensed it as proprietary, and cried that we forked the last open-source version.
It's not as if any reasonable person is going to try to pretend that these knowledge/posts came from anywhere but XeNTaX.
