It’s so disappointing to me that it’s practically a guarantee that free services (like Discord’s file hosting) will come to not only be abused, but abused at scale if they remain free long enough. To me it’s one of the many issues that has eroded away the wonder of the web. I can’t imagine what it must be like trying to get a foothold as a new image host these days, for example. Your free offering will be misused as soon as you get the smallest amount of traction, which then prompts you to lock it down, which then stymies growth that funnels into paid plans.
