    Hosting the image on discords CDN allows you not to give out your IP address to any person that comes across the link

    You don’t need the whole image, just the route to your machine to retrieve the data. Glorified Bit.ly.

    One of the big things you don’t have to think about is the person you just made a joke about or beat in an online game trying to DDOS your machine

    Definitely a perk of a bulk centralized system. But the pricing model is still messed up. If Teamspeak sold you gems to buy widgets to mask your IP, I still wouldn’t pay for the service.
