Discord.py is dead see here.

With the new changes including slash commands (see #63) we need to pick a library that supports it. The only one I have any experience in is using (Discord.js)[https://discord.js.org/#/] via TypeScript (see: steve). And I guess it's time to learn another programming language.

A new branch will be created for this purpose but it will likely take sometime to move over. The only updates to the python branch will be @pyup-bot security updates from now on.

Discord.py has resurrected and supports slash commands
