I am surprised that KQED got a $200,000 grant to open a Discord community.

Is there is a reason for that and what did that money got spent on?

    Having opened a Discord Server for a company in the past, $200k is about right for something of this size. KQED has the most-tech savvy listener population of a US radio station (the local NPR for SanFran and surrounding area)

    Paying people to moderate it real-time will probably be most of the cost.
