Has anyone received a probe to announce the trivia thread to the forums?

Otherwise, I volunteer:
Mods are butts and need to punish me for sass, or they're cowards, but also need to mention this thread in the probe or I'm gonna be sad.

(USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Discord, when it comes right down to it, is just IRC + Mumble with a bit of video functionality on top.

They even acknowledge this is the settings:

Only registered members can see post attachments!

Also, Discord has already begun their enshittification phase in earnest.

This means they're starting to feel that they'll run out of VC money eventually, so they're pushing their subscription service harder - except that''s never worked for anyone else who started with a free service, so like every other VC funded company that runs out of money, they'll either IPO and end up with a capitalist board of directors or they'll sell to a FAANG-like entity who'll gobble up the data and eventually shutter the service for NewDiscord.

the only discord features I'd kind of like is the ability to vote for a particular proposed answer via react emoticons and the ability to search the history of a channel going back months/years, but we manage without that stuff reasonably well and there's so much poo poo in discord that I don't want cluttering things up during a lightning round question
The second can be accomplished quicker with grep'ing IRC logs.
