DiscordChatExporter is an application that can be used to export message history from any Discord channel to a file. It works with direct messages, group messages, and server channels, and supports Discord's dialect of markdown as well as most other rich media features.
Now without any political statements or a schizoid asocial deranged repository owner.

Warning: To run DiscordChatExporter on macOS and Linux, you need to make sure that .NET 7.0 Runtime is installed. You can download it here:
- .NET 7.0 Runtime for macOS x64
- .NET 7.0 Runtime for macOS Arm64
- .NET 7.0 Runtime for Linux (find the correct download for your distro)
This should not be necessary if you install DiscordChatExporter using a package manager, as it should take care of the dependencies for you. This is also not necessary if you are running DiscordChatExporter via Docker, because the image already contains the runtime.
