It's actually quite worrisome, many projects exclusively have their troubleshooting or support on Discord now what's going to happen years down the road when all those Discord servers have closed or no longer active and the invite links expire this is going to be a vast knowledge base that's just lost to the world

This is why going back to the moon is so hard, when msn groups closed back in the early 1970s we lost alot of very precious knowledge.

No, there was MSN in the 70s but communication was made through a machine called Microtron. They are largely lost to the world due to being made from degradable PCB plates.

Yes, obviously.

Everyone knows the moon isn't even real.
