Gonna just add in here that I really don't like the way people talk about this stuff because what it comes down to (normally) is someone doesn't think, clicks on stuff without being suspicious of it, doesn't do their due diligence with security, and in the end gets compromised by getting credentials stolen (likely token given it's much easier to do this on Discord than it should be). To say it was hacked is silly, it's more accurate to say an employee/staff was compromised due to failure to uphold good security practices.
It happens to many and nobody is perfect, even the most security conscious people can get compromised in wild ways, but there's no defense for failing at such basic security practices in my eyes especially if you're in a fairly important position in your community. The PR handling is fairly standard "This staff member was compromised, please migrate and block/report their old account" which as honest as it is always comes off as a pretty garbage response to the situation.
In the end the consequence was the server was compromised, a new one needs to be made, everyone needs to migrate, and I'm willing to bet it will happen again because of how admittedly easy it is to do this especially with the new .zip domains lmao. I would like to just hope everyone takes some food for thought from this post because it's become an increasingly bigger issue as time goes on, at least from what I've observed (everywhere, not just this instance).
