Just found this after repeatedly reading here that communities migrating to discord have the huge disadvantage of not being indexed on google. Does this look like a good solution for that?

    It’s a neat project and it definitely helps in specific cases, but I don’t think it’ll change much when it comes to the overall picture because it’d still require coordinated effort by the folks managing their discord servers.
    Server admins/mods would have to go out of their way to manually set this up so it’s effectively opt-in, and I have a hunch there isn’t much of an overlap between people who care about open, searchable discussions and people who choose to host them on discord servers. Maybe for discoverability’s sake? Not sure.

    Seems like a neat idea. People rightfully hate on Discord for basically being a black hole for information. However as a developer, I have to consider my audience of users, and my users are gamers so Discord is my best option for providing help.

    I have wondered if it is possible to mirror Discord threads into GitHub discussions.
