#26 is the successor to this PR. Please refer to that PR for any changes.

Description

Removes /confirm and adds a cleanup command /cleanup unconfirmed to kick unconfirmed users (i.e. users without the Member role). This is to remove the obsolete manual confirmation system the server has had since its inception in 2020.

Why kick Unconfirmed members?

While users can go to "Channels & Roles," they will still have the Unconfirmed role if they do not leave the server. An easy way would be to delete the Unconfirmed role (fixed via baed1b2)

They can take the initiative to do it themselves. Otherwise, kicking them and having them rejoin forces them into the onboarding pipeline, and if they don't end up rejoining, oh well, they were dead weight anyway to the member count.

How to communicate this to users?

Make #welcome read-only and clear all messages. Replace the top message with an @everyone announcement that includes instructions to either go to "Channels & Roles" or rejoin the server to complete the onboarding survey.

This announcement should be sent to #welcome to @everyone on 2025-09-01. We can set a hard deadline of 2025-09-15 before we kick and remove channel access on 2025-09-16 PDT.
