    The amount of niche info that would have been found in searchable forum posts in years prior, that has now gotten sucked up into Discord where it can’t be found, fucking blows.

      And imagine if public facing forums weren’t mostly dead because of the “necroposting” hate moderator brainworm

      Oops this discussion from 2017 is the number one google link for your niche topic ? Well, too bad, post in new and maybe in five years it will be #2 post on google for that topic.

      Who put the nerds with no friends in charge of human social interaction ‽
