If a random unauthenticated user can find it, which is what I am assuming people mean by making it accessible instead of locked in a discord, then other companies can pull and use the data too. What benefit does discord have to gain by making their content more accessible, that outweighs the possible losses?
- HWR_14 4y agoDiscord having the ability to search through their history and provide knowledge is not the same thing as allowing unauthenticated/anonymous users to mirror all the data. The limiting factor is a human responding to the same question 1000 times or bad search through a channels history. Although one solution would be to give all their data to Google and hurt themselves, the alternative would be to make their own search better within their ecosystem.
