Why isn't Cog.description a cached_property?

kwarg for .send that will convert content to a file if it's over 2000 character?

Is there a reason why both GUILD_MEMBER_UPDATE and PRESENCE_UPDATE both trigger on_member_update instead of having them be distinct events?

await voice_client.self_deafen(True)

Member.is_typing()

Why is cog_unload not a coroutine

commands.CommandAlreadyRegistered and commands.AliasAlreadyRegistered (inheriting from discord.ClientException)

Message.emojis

Command.add/remove_aliases

2018:

2020:

An attribute for AutoShardedClient that would tell you when all shards are ready or override .is_ready() for that type of client or an event that we can use like client.wait_for("clientReady") or whatever for when everything's read and make on_shard_ready be called every time a shard is ready to use

on_bot_mentioned event

A way to hot reload help command class

on_ready_once() or on_start() or on_first_ready()

TextChannel.jump_url & Others

Message.refresh() & Guild.refresh()

Classmethod/staticmethod converter

Why doesn't the library immediately raise an error when you try to send a message over 2000 characters long but rather sends it to the API?

discord.utils.remove_markdown ?

Developers environment

discord.Embed.set_image() raise error when no url

Known issue with the role cache order on member objects

Possible that someone gets rate-limited when lock.acquire waits until it's over?

The Guild#region call is a bit inconsistent

A guild check decorator similar to has_permissions

"guild.members not having all members"

What if cogs accepted the same checks (decorators) as commands

why doesn't Message support __eq__ like some other models?

Why is guild_only() separate decorator?

There should be convenience methods for embeds to quickly find fields e.g discord.Embed.find_field(name="xyz")

Why not commands.Cog.listener() => commands.listener() ?

Improve wait_for example

Throw an HTTPException "if timer > x" rather than queueing to retry.

discord.Bot class

Plans to implement gateway intents?

Welcome screen can be edited

Rename Guild.categories to Guild.category_channels

GuildChannel.permissions_for to optionally accept a Role instead of a Member?

cache=False in fetch_member?

Why no discord.Embed().remove_field() ?

DM to a member that is not in the same guild as the bot

Why not allow setting of footer, author, etc in Embed's __init__

Should passing empty strings for name in commands.command/bot.command/group.command decorators be supported?

Create a mock Member object?

Why Cog.walk_commands(), Cog.get_commands(), and Cog.get_listeners() couldn't be classmethods?

More detailed improper token warning

Message.delete(ignore_errors=True)

Difference between create_category and create_category_channel?

It's an alias.
