Discord has (very primitive) support for text replacement using `sed` syntax.
<!--more-->
## Tutorial
{{< video src="example.mov" title="Example Video" >}}
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
