Weekly Draft — Apr 14

Big week. Someone finally shipped the CLI tool they've been building for six months, the auth debate in #backend went three days straight, and a quiet member's side project hit the front page of Hacker News.

## The tool that broke the star counter

One link in #show-work. Within an hour: 40 replies, 200 GitHub stars, and three members asking to contribute.

## The great monorepo debate

It started with a simple question. Two hours and 80 messages later, someone posted a diagram that actually changed minds.

*Next week: community hackathon kicks off Friday.*

Questions

What if I already have a newsletter but never send it?+
That's exactly who Distill is for. You already have the subscribers and the community. You just need someone to do the first 90% of the writing. That's us.
Will it sound like me or like a robot?+
The draft captures what happened in your community — the stories, the wins, the debates. You spend 10 minutes making it sound like you. Most creators publish with light edits.
What platforms does it publish to?+
Beehiiv, ConvertKit, and Ghost. Substack doesn't have a public API, so we can't support it yet.
What about member privacy?+
Any member can run /distill optout and their messages are permanently excluded. We never store raw messages after the draft is generated. Everything is encrypted.
Is the free generation really one per server, ever?+
Yes. We key it on the Discord guild ID, so making a new account or re-adding the bot doesn't reset it. We do this so you get a real taste of the product without the freebie being gameable.

You built a community people love.
Let the rest of the world see it.
