Can deleted Discord messages be retrieved somehow?

Here’s my take on this. I can see both sides of the argument when it comes to retrieving deleted Discord messages. On one hand, Discord’s infrastructure is designed to remove deleted messages from their servers, making it challenging to recover them. On the other hand, there are some potential methods that might allow for recovery, such as checking server logs or asking other users who may have seen the message before it was deleted. Additionally, some bots or third-party tools might claim to offer message recovery features, but their effectiveness and reliability are unclear. It’s also worth considering that deleted messages may still be stored on individual users’ devices, depending on their device settings and Discord client configurations.
