Feature details?

We currently only have metrics from Reddit, it would be nice to have similar or some kind of data from our discord server as well.

Hey @Bhupesh-V
a couple of questions.

1. How exactly is this to be designed currently, the Reddit script is writing to a file in data/, we want to have another script that writes to a new file or wants to modify the same file.
2. What all data from discord is needed for this, do we have any experience building with discord and what all APIs should I explore?

[Bhupesh-V]

1. We can modify the same file, just add a new JSON Key like discordTotalMembers.
2. No, we haven't researched about the API. We only need the total members count for now. If using the API is not possible, you can look at this hack to fetch data using an invite link https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71566064/how-to-get-total-member-count-of-any-discord-server.
