Explainer for people who don’t know all the references:

• There is a meme of “Every time you x, god kills a kitten”

• Discord is a chat app like Slack. Its code is not publicly accessible (proprietary, closed source) and it is controlled by a single company (centralized).

• Brewster Kahle is a digital rights advocate and founder of https://archive.org/

• Many open source software projects use Discord instead of similar open source, decentralized alternatives like https://matrix.org/

• It’s hard to find anything in Discord

• There’s no good way to permanently archive anything in Discord
