Just thought I should make HN aware of this - it seems the original discord is gone, as well as the community repo.

what is/was Manim...?
Manim is a python library created by Grant Sanderson to create really great math animations - if you've seen his YouTube channel 3Blue1Brown, he built Manim specifically with that in mind.
There's two versions, the version on his github specifically for his videos, and a community version that is more maintained.
The community version is the one that got hacked.
