So if I sell a paid package that let's you upload files, then I store them and make them available to unlimited other people and put the files on my global cdn to achieve that. But I specifically don't use the magic words in my advertisement. It's not that product it's some magical other nameless thing
Listen, I would be right there with you if this wasn't a paid for feature, but it is. People pay Discord specifically for this. And now discord are neutering that feature because people are actually using it and now discord is mad. Just pay, don't use.
So now people who want to distribute files will end up using mega or whatever and going off app, and for what. So discord saves some money. Fuckin great
