Embed LinksThe bot sends messages in a special format called Embed, which is similar to link previews on Discord. It also lists links to the official website and wiki for help.
Read Message HistoryThe bot needs access to message history for translating old messages through flag emoji reaction, and to sync edits/deletions.
Manage MessagesThis permission is required for syncing edits and deletions between original messages and their translations. It is also needed for the auto-delete-commands feature.

Prefixes

The bot is using ! as his default prefix. Most of the commands are available as slash and prefixed commands.
