This reminds me of the words in the video "Why Bing Isn't a Failure (& the Future of the Internet)" [0]

> At the very bottom are plugins, extensions, mods and hacks. They fundamentally depend on the indifference or obliviousness of a larger company, who they often mean very little to. And when their goals differ the larger company always wins.

Any third-party dependent on another party will be at the whims of the other party. yt-dl can see it happening with age-restricted videos, people using tools to migrate from Spotify depend on them turning a blind eye to leaving customers taking their data with them, fan-made games that continue a story (pokemon for example) and get a cease-and-desist, probably many other examples, and now this too.

Kudos to this dude for writing an entire framework for bots as a friggin' doctor in his spare time. Hats off for staying at it for so long. Also, respect for drawing a line in the sand and not giving in to any demands from Discord or users to just lie down, take it, and continue developing the framework with more constraints.
