The best way to time your Discord announcement

✌️ How do you aim to achieve this?

• In the settings, add the option to choose which channel to post to

I think this can be done with Discord webhooks to avoid needing to create and invite bot accounts.

Can this be assigned to me please?

i agree discord webhooks might be the way for this feature that way it would be easier for the end user

@jamesread Can I take this issue? If so, do you approve of using webhooks?

This link appears to be dead. Is there an updated one? Thanks!

So, I know that Nevo is working on the code for this already in the background, so it's probably not ready for public contributions.

Discord is now live and working, and I'm using it!
