rewind shows up to five messages sent on today’s date, one to five years ago. with no number, it picks the nearest year that has something to show.

​
setting it up

rewind works for anybody without setup. setting it up gets you a rewind posted on its own once a day, after 12:00 utc.
open the dashboard, pick your server and go to rewind & recap. under daily rewind, pick the channel it’s posted in, or leave it off, and save.
drain needs read message history to find anything for the daily post.

​
what it looks through

rewind uses discord’s own message search, and only in channels that:
  • @everyone can see
  • aren’t marked nsfw
  • drain can read the history of
  • you can see
bots and people who opted out are left out. nothing is stored: rewind reads fresh every time.
a new or small server might not be searchable yet. discord indexes servers on its own schedule, and rewind will say so.
