D*scord is technically searchable and fairly archiveable (messages never get deleted due to old age (in my experience at least) or if the original poster deletes their account). And some d*scord servers even have a Q&A mode similar to st*ck *verflow. But yeah, not the right tool for the job, not to mention ABSOLUTELY PROPRIETARY

Why are you redacting platform names like it's profanity? My brain keeps trying to read it as markdown....

Same reasons you'd censor profanity. To show that I don't necessarily agree with or support them. Maybe I should start using the vomit emoji instead of asterisks like u/pancakes [joking].

To me it comes off like you're irrationally afraid to invoke its name.

I get and appreciate that you're trying to make a statement here, but in my opinion it isn't landing the way you think it is. By giving its name special reverence you're needlessly elevating it, not diminishing it.
