Discord has (very primitive) support for text replacement using `sed` syntax.
<!--more-->
## Tutorial
If you send a message using `sed` substitution format (`s/old text/new text`),
Discord will execute it on the message you've last sent.
## Caveats
- Regex is not supported
- Global substitution is not supported
