Which errors does discord.js handle and which does it let bubble up?
To give one example, it looks like discord.js handles
NotAuthenticated and unexpected close codes but not DisallowedIntents. But I wouldn't have known that if I didn't dig through the source code. And that's just websocket close codes, what about REST errors or errors that come from discord but aren't explicitly part of the API (e.g. codes like 1001)? Is there proper documentation on this anywhere?128 replies

How to run recommended ("auto") shard count all in one thread?
As far as I can tell, the shard manager is always either multi-process or multi-threaded. But I can't find any other way to run multiple shards, so I'm not sure how to do that in a single thread.

Does the REST handler retry failed requests?
See title. I'm mainly referring to errors with a 5xx code, but I do want to know if the REST handler retries any requests of any type.
I want to handle those errors and would like to know if I'm just repeating error handling logic that discord.js already performs.
And if there are community resources or examples on how best to implement this please point me to them, I wasn't able to find anything when I looked.

How to respond negatively to an autocomplete interaction?
Discord's documentation really doesn't make this clear unless I'm missing something...
Should I
interaction.respond() with an empty array? Or just not respond at all? Or respond in some other way?3 replies

How to check whether a user can be DMed?
See title. The best I can figure out is actually trying to send a DM, but by the point I'm doing that there's nothing I can do if it fails, so it would be nice if there's a better way to check.

Can discord.js store snowflakes as bigints instead of strings?
See title, I couldn't spot any options for it in the docs and I'm curious if it's possible.
