Note that there's an error in the assumptions behind the discord regex, discord invites do not necessarily have "invite" in the url, and may use the domain discord.gg instead. For instance the yarn repo[0] uses the url "https://discord.gg/yarnpkg" which was missed by your search. Another worthwhile mention is the Svelte repo[1], which uses discord, but instead of linking directly to their discord invite, links to "https://svelte.dev/chat" which then redirects to their discord invite. Looking for the "discord.gg/invitecode" pattern[2] gives 27k results, safe to say discord is severely under-represented in your statistic.

Roadmap https://github.com/sveltejs/svelte/issues/622 > (last comment - Jun 28, 2020) This isn't really an up to date of view on where we are and where we would like to go. We have some tentative plans to improve how we communicate the 'roadmap' in the future. We'll update when we know more. https://github.com/sveltejs/svelte/issues/3704 > Honestly the roadmap for the near future is the same as it's been since Svelte suddenly got much more popular without a corresponding increase in maintainer resources: fixing bugs. Developing exciting new features is going to take a back seat to dealing with the huge backlog of issues for the time being. From original Svelte auth
