A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Oh so the files will still be hosted by discord, just the url to then will be changed every day. That makes a lot more sense but also locks you more and more into discord. Although I suspect if you are hosting meaningful files on discord then you don't care about vendor lock in.

If you're hosting meaningful files on Discord, you need a better hosting solution. Discord isn't meant for large-scale file sharing.

I agree but I know a few operations that would suffer from discord actually removing files from storage after 24 hours.
