>ended with the closure of the discord

oh no anyways. Discord user and there mods are probably the last people anybody in the FOSS or real world should care about or associate with.

Sometimes Discord is still pretty helpful with real-time support. It indeed has its flaws, but some of the best real time help is still given there. I love the C++ discord, it's just filled with gems.

>it's just filled with gems

gems not sorted or indexed at all gated behind a account requiring personal information to just view them.

Luckily that’s a solved, or trivially-solved problem now.

how?

Select All -> Paste into local or cloud LLM -> Ask question

even if the LLM was directly trained on discord it still would not be the same and never will

The same as what?

A permalink is a permalink, whether I found it in 5 minutes to an hour,

or the robot found it in 5 seconds.

Discord is handy for real-time support as a user, but because those support questions don't become a body of searchable public knowledge over time, they are all doomed. The maintainers will burn out from the endless basic questions.
