  • Don't Use Discord as a Forum

    If you ever need to extract important information buried somewhere in a Discord server, I am having luck with Discord History Tracker [1] (browser-only version). It lets you download all messages in a json file, which then you can read with [2] (works offline too).

    Maybe you can save the chats by yourself? Another user recommended https://dht.chylex.com/. At least the messages will be backed up then.

    I much like https://github.com/Sanqui/discard2. You can use the derive-urls reader on a finished crawl to get attachments. https://dht.chylex.com has a GUI and is easier to use, but gets less data.

    I appreciate the links, I also pushed the community shared drive to help unify sample collection and standards of naming so this allows testing and checking via any users but also perma-hosting rather than samples being lost an issue I find with forum posts when people toss them up on annon file or mega or a space-limited google account etc its a nightmare. I would say discord is a long-term paper trail (If you use it right), it's real-time comms but also easily hard text exportable, everything posted is permahosted even if user accounts get banned or deleted off the platform that content has to be manually scrubbed, and every thing can be target looked up easier then targeted google, and easy to follow reply chains since last years update, the issue I have with forums is 1 delay times and 2 no easy target lookup or the ability to find an entire start to finish chain in 10-sec ware as on discord its fluid to find what you need to know when you need to know it and stops duplicates information quite well.

  • My server got nuked because of a Custom Bot (not doing that ever again) and it banned everyone. What should I do?
    2 projects | /r/discordapp | 4 Jul 2021
    Doesn't really work, atleast it doesn't look clean. The best you could do imo., is a bot that does Backups via Discord DHT, so people could just download it afterwards if something happens and keep the chat for some cool messages or w.e
