Over the last decade, Discord has become the de facto community space for gaming, and there are a lot of huge servers out there that you can find by scrolling through its public servers page. But starting on November 16, some messages in these huge servers will be viewable from Google.
Good move in some ways but also this is now a massive problem because this wasn’t something that was thought about until very very very late in the development/hypecycle of Discord, so now this is going to be a problem fraught with no easy answers because there are innumerable Discord communities that were created with never a thought to whether this was wanted or not and was never discussed by the community as a possibility until now probably.
The design choices or rather lack of proactive thinking about design here have put a huge amount of people in awkward positions in a way that was entirely unnecessary if Discord had embraced the idea of part of Discord communities being able (and even encouraged) to be searchable by Google.
