I really like MB, even with its now-reduced membership, and hope it keeps going as long as we all do. If google ever decides to close it, I wonder if we have any back-up plan? Can we copy and paste it? Can we beg to join the alternative site that I think tore actually opened once?

Hopefully, nothing will happen with MB though.

I guess you old bitches will just have to learn about Discord.

But what if Discord shuts down?

Don't be sowing discord, now.

Oddly enough, I'm familiar with Discord because that's where I've been conducting my classes ever since Mexico suspended face-to-face teaching back in March 2020. I'm not too sure if it's any substitute for MB though. Have you guys opened many text channels there? Do you use it mainly for talking or typing?
Perhaps I should log in and answer my own questions.

Wouldn't that be cheating?

Isn't discord chat+video? Do conversations stay recorded? It doesn't sound like a replacement to a forum.

It's text, call, and video. Less ability to preserve and look up old posts, but the call and video options are a big advantage
