Uhh new channel suggestions

[matej118111]

These channels could be created only by people with developer license
Discord is place for communites, and there are many developers on discord, i would like to suggest channels that could be useful
for developers

Github channel:
Channel that embeds your github page, i don't think i need to explain this one

Database channel:
Basically embeded mysql database, this could be useful for developers and game server managers

Forum channels ? like guilded has, they copied discord, its time for discord to copy them
Also you could add new setting to annoucements channel, something like auto-publish so you don't need to click the litle button every time you want to push annoucement in other servers

Github channel

You can just use GitHub webhooks. Just append /github to the end of the webhook URL.

Database channel

No, just no. You should not be using Discord as a datastore. There's a thousand and one reasons for it, notably that it would have abysmal performance. Not too mention that it is terribly insecure as a datastore because Discord can read everything written to the channel. Just use a proper database, there's plenty of managed providers out there that make it a hell of a lot easier. But using discord as a datastore is both really bad practice, and against their ToS/developer agreement.

Forum channels

These are actually in a closed beta being used in a handful of partnered servers and DDevs. There is no known ETA on its full release, but they do exist and are being actively worked on and tested.

Also you could add new setting to annoucements channel, something like auto-publish so you don't need to click the litle button every time you want to push annoucement in other servers

If that really bothers you so much, you can make a very simple bot that sees when a message is posted in an announcement channel and automatically publishes it. Discord does not auto-publish in order to prevent spam and abuse, as well as allow a chance for people to correct any typos they missed before sending. There's also plenty of people that don't want every message published and only some published.

developer license

Forgot this in my original message, but the dev license is deprecated since they no longer support publishing/selling games through Discord. For all intents and purposes, it no longer exists.

Also just to note, The database channels, i didn't mean that discord will host it, it is security issue of course, but as long as someone can't change the stuff in the database it would be okay

[NovaFox161]

No, it wouldn't be okay in any context. Using discord as your datastore is not secure, not feasible, and against ToS. A proper database really isn't that hard to setup or use. It would be far far easier than trying to hack discord into a custom datastore or asking them to somehow build it into their chat platform

I think what they mean is an SQL database viewer inside Discord …which also doesn't make sense.
