This is neat, but it seems a bit more like just a searchable index and not so much like an actual structured "knowledgebase". https://kbclip.com/ is something we've been using as you don't have to deal with the slog of searching through all the inane conversations to find what you're looking for (and it's a lot more structured). That being said, you do have recognize that you want to save something up front. Maybe us…

Works more like a searchable knowledge graph, with the ability to identify users as nodes. Ie you can search for answers in the messages, links that probably have answers and people who would likely know the answers (we then link to said people).

I'm happy to answer any questions people have. Initial feedback has been pretty positive so far.
Valid point about how KB Clip is "opt-in". that's intentional as many channels can be like a firehose. The core tenet of KB Clip design is that the most important info should be clipped and it should only take seconds to do so. I love a good pun or gif war and anyone, but not in my wiki or KB.
That being said, I've also got some roadmap features that help surface conversations that heuristically might be important to save as well.

#25Anything like this for Discord?
Doing this indexing work is a bit different on Discord as their privacy policy doesn't let you publicly share users messages without them consenting first - so this project has got a lot built out for driving user consent to allow for those messages to be displayed publicly.
For users who haven't explicitly said they want their messages to be public, those messages can still be shown on the site they just have to be behind a sign in that checks if the users are in the same server
A big focus of this project is building out tools to improve help channels on Discord and then using what gets built out to drive user consent, for example one feature of it is being able to mark questions as solved which also prompts users to contribute their messages

If somebody knows a more recent/feature rich tool, I'd love to hear it!
rereading your comment: I guess you are looking for a way to export your discord history, not import your slack history into discord. sorry!

#28Start thinking about what you will rename to when Slack send you a C & D for using their name in yours.
