That is an improvement for sure. The problem remains, though, that the info is locked in Discord and won't show up on search engines.
Yes, but to be fair once again, some might see it as a good thing because it might drive up engagement and discourage lurking. I.e., if you already went through the trouble of creating an account, then why not post or comment?
That’s more like Twitter or Facebook, where you have a search result telling you certain info is available, but then you have to sign in to view it. The problem with Discord is not knowing where the info is in the first place, as in which discord community. There could be many that cover a certain game, for instance.
