Discord will make messages in certain large public servers searchable on the web starting in December. The company is introducing specially designated channels whose posts can appear in search engine results, aiming to solve the recurring complaint that some conversations 'should have been a forum' instead of a chat. The change would open previously closed community discussions to the wider internet, raising questions among users about privacy and server control over what becomes publicly indexed.

Why now: Users are debating the privacy implications of private-feeling chat communities becoming visible to search engines.
