Well modded discord servers for popular topics will have forum channels that behave exactly as you would expect them to. Sure they're not indexed on search engines, that much is true, but discord isn't the "blink and you'll miss it" live chat client that it once was.

I was specifically referring to the forum like sections. The lack of indexing and internet archive means large swaths of knowledge, timelines, history, and even culture will become dust in the wind.
