    That is absolutely not true unless if you have exact word matches, and anyone with half a brain knows it’s not about searching within discord, but about searching outside of it.

    Discord is a black hole of information. What happens inside is unknown from the outside. This is why every single FOSS project using discord loses the right to call themselves FOSS - an issues page is equally free, has way, way better features to relate an issue to patches and releases, and is actually indexable.

      It absolutely is.

      it’s not about searching within discord, but about searching outside of it.

      I’m gonna ignore your uncalled-for personal insult and instead point out that you might want to search a specific group for information rather than the entirety of the internet.

      What happens inside is unknown from the outside.

      Then just…go inside? These aren’t password-protected communities.

      Uhhhh no that’s not how that works.

      an issues page is equally free, has way, way better features to relate an issue to patches and releases, and is actually indexable.

      I agree.

        I rest my case.

        I don’t have the time for this.

          What “walled garden”? I don’t think you know what that phrase means.

          I don’t have the time for this.

          Good, go away.

        If your project isn’t something I can index through a search engine - you don’t have a project. Want a forum? Make a subreddit or better yet a Lemmy community.
