I uploaded a test exe in a private Discord server.. and a little while later Discord edited my message and deleted my exe. Understandable why, but still unexpected!

It surprised me! I thought they would have warned the user or deleted the message, but nope, they edit it..

If it's a file you need to send, how do you do?

If it's something that needs to be accessible for a while, I put mine up on mega, Dropbox, or google drive.

Google Drive has cracked down a bit on what types of files they support. They actually banned me from uploading for a few days from uploading and sharing an exe lol

That's nuts... What about nesting it in a zip, rar, or 7z?

Haven't tried, Dropbox is too convenient :P

I'm surprised. They never gave me a hard time doing emulator packages. We had to send preconfigured stuff for races and events and they never batted an eye.

I don't think Dropbox deletes your files, that's what I usually use
