Use Imgur or other image hosts from now on instead of Discord. As you will possibly have noticed, Discord-linked images are no longer working outside of Discord.
A lot of my bbcode relies on me uploading complementary images on Discord, this update really really really fucked me over. I now have an absurd amount of picture links I need to reupload and replace. I genuinely want to die.

I can relate. Numerous inRP reports I've posted used images linked to Discord. Quite an annoying process ahead...
Once again, Discord shows themselves to be a completely unreliable application willing to bother their userbase as much as possible and whenever they can. Thank you for the heads-up. To be honest, I always thought hosting images on Discord was not reliable anyway so I always used Imgur. Tough luck for you people who do/did.
One day maybe we'll have something better than Discord.

... Discord was never intended to be an image hoster. They have their reasons as to why they don't allow external use of stuff anymore. It's just inconvenient for us people who have relied on it for a long time.

I'm not talking about Discord being a image hoster fam. I'm talking about the service they provide in general not being reliable at all. I don't use it as a image hoster. Other people did.
