Discord broke my API access a few days ago, and said I "broke their rules" for "spam".

At no point have they told me what I posted which broke their rules.

All I've done? Host a bridge to Matrix.

I will note that API access is allowed on Discord under the terms of use. It's how moderation bots work.

This wasn't some hacked together thing. I followed the rules and they auto-banned me and won't tell me why.

This is centralization at work.

If you run a FOSS project and use Discord for your community, it's only a matter of time before something breaks it.

Decentralize now.
