Depends on how it's implemented. Anyone using a "media proxy" will see their discord bridged media probably fail to load (outside of possible caches) after a day. Anyone who has their bridge configured to reupload discord media to their homeserver should see no change.
What is this bridge you speak of? I'm intrigued. Does matrix have a functionality that lets you run a mirror of a discord channel?
Yes, but you have to selfhost your own instance. Big servers don't have that, and the ones that have probably require payment.
You don't.
Here is a free bridge bot that will do it for you
Yes exactly. The bridge logs into the discord server as a user. Then it mirrors all chats from your user in matrix to the discord.
Oh matrix, every user on the connected server gets a user whose name is their snowflake. Those virtual users post into the matrix server whatever their respective discord users posts.
One of these four.
