discord-irc VS DiscordChatExporter

How does this compare to https://github.com/reactiflux/discord-irc ?

You can link your irc channels to Discord so no one gets left behind or if some old regular who has been idle for 15 years becomes active again.

Maybe discord-irc

But you can migrate. Have a bot running bridging both apps and then phase the old one slowly out. Like

https://github.com/reactiflux/discord-irc

https://t2bot.io/discord/

That way you are not stuck in an ecosystem. Sure some ppl will always be unhappy and looking up content in the old system is subpar but thats the nature of the game.

Yup, definitely seems possible from a quick google search. LiberaChat seems to just be IRC. Looking for a Discord to IRC bridge, I found this which appears to operate in both directions.

if you want to use your discord client, you can probably set up a bridge. Check out: https://github.com/reactiflux/discord-irc

DiscordChatExporter: https://github.com/Tyrrrz/DiscordChatExporter

It's a standalone program using the API in a nonstandard way but I don't think anyone's been banned for using it yet.

In case anyone is not aware, you can download Discord logs.

I'm sure many people are annoyed by online forums being replaced by Discord. For a while I've hoarded servers I'm a part of with this tool. It's incredible, there's even a frontend tool they also made to browse your archived servers. Over time I've helped people find deleted guides, individuals who edit/delete content to get around rules, etc. This is becoming more of a necessity as time goes on.

I've used this tool: https://github.com/Tyrrrz/DiscordChatExporter

Someone in the Discord server could try using DiscorcChatExporter.

Discord to me is like a burning library when it comes to archiving. You can try to save somethings but servers are disappearing all the time. There's discord chat exporter to archive discords, you can have an option to save attachments/images that you have to toggle on otherwise it won't. You could set it up so you could just use your account (which is against tos) or make a bot which does need to be invited to the server in question. So there is a way to download discords, but it risks getting you banned from discord. Note that being able to open the resulting html file relies on your computer, as some exports I've done are BIG and my computer being unable to load the file and read it (and no, my computer is not bad).
