It's a massive scrapper?
Like it engages in scrappy flights? I guess that's one way to frame fighting with discord but I'd personally see them as fairly comparable weight classes.
Or did you mean scraper like vacuuming up data* off of everyone who visits?
Vacuuming up days?
Like it sucks time from your life, siphoning precious time out from your life without even realizing it? I guess that's one way to frame browsing Polygon but I'd personally view it as a pretty tame example compared to sites like YouTube or Lemmy.
Or did you mean data like the site is harvesting information off your service when you click the link?
Typo; vacuuming up data.
Ducking autocorrect
I was just poking a bit of fun, because there's a good chance it was an autocorrect typo for the original commenter too :p
