Ah right, users and bots are treated differently. So yeah, in order to crawl disc servers without first asking every single one permission, you’d have to break the ToS. I have no idea if matrix has a separate “bot” type account.
Really, I think the matrix protocol needs some kind of support for this. I mean, both discord and matrix do, but I don’t think discord would ever do it.
Every single one meaning every server owner and not every user in the server I’m guessing?
Could definitely market a bot that generates a wiki from discord (maybe manages ticket, has git integration etc) to people who run these things though it’s not like the server owners are deliberately locking away their documentation and much of them have ticketing bots already
