[vfclists]

> 1. Questions and answers on Discord are searchable, there's a channel format that makes every conversation a thread and the UI even automatically searches for matches as you type the title of a new thread, which is what the Zig Discord server uses. It's correct to say that Discord answers will not be searchable outside of Discord, but it's factually wrong to say that you won't be able to very easily find out if your question has been asked already.

The built-in search software for a lot of forums is for lack of a better term, abysmal.

Consider this search on SO - user:172406 javascript userscript

consider the same search on google - vfclists javascript userscript.

It is the first answer on the list and note that I didn't add "stackoverflow" to the query.
