I generally advise people to not host images on Discord in general, because what usually seems to happen is it'll work fine for a few days, and then all of a sudden the hotlink will no longer work - you can still click the link to view the image in a separate tab, but it won't show on whatever other website you're using. I imagine Discord probably doesn't want people hotlinking stuff from their site, both to keep it as a walled garden and to prevent loads of requests that put strain on their servers without giving them any money or other value for it in return, so I started using imgBB to host my images before switching to my website's current host... it serves its purpose well, and you can even upload stuff without an account if you want (I chose to make one so I could keep tabs on all the images better). Either way, yeah, I concur with the main point of this blog: do not use Discord to host your images. You can store them there, but hotlinking will not work for long.

This was me I think! I didn't actually want to remove you! I was just concerned about not being able to interact with your page! Because in my mind that might cause someone to get an idea to be melvolent to people and not be able to be removed by others! Glad you got it figured out! The issue seemed to only be on web and not mobile



LOL YEAH I saw that and was like completely clueless until this morning when I tried doing something and couldn't click anywhere  .
