>They threatened to delete my server

I really hate how Discord intentionally co-opted the word "server" in order to imply that one can somehow own or control a Discord account.

Discord Inc owns and controls all the servers. There's no such thing as "your Discord server", there are only accounts on Discord's SaaS platform, which they can restrict/censor/ban/nuke at any time for any reason.

It is not possible for individuals to self-host Discord.
