Discord has a robust search system
That is absolutely not true unless if you have exact word matches, and anyone with half a brain knows it's not about searching within discord, but about searching outside of it.
Discord is a black hole of information. What happens inside is unknown from the outside. This is why every single FOSS project using discord loses the right to call themselves FOSS - an issues page is equally free, has way, way better features to relate an issue to patches and releases, and is actually indexable.
It absolutely is.
I'm gonna ignore your uncalled-for personal insult and instead point out that you might want to search a specific group for information rather than the entirety of the internet.
Then just...go inside? These aren't password-protected communities.
Uhhhh no that's not how that works.
I agree.
Ladies and gentlemen of the Linux community: A guy telling you to step inside the walled garden. Unironically.
I rest my case.
I don't have the time for this.
What "walled garden"? I don't think you know what that phrase means.
Good, go away.
No I will not sign up for ze discord chinese data harvesting op
If your project isn't something I can index through a search engine - you don't have a project. Want a forum? Make a subreddit or better yet a Lemmy community.
