I have spent the last two days on a networking issue. Certain images weren't being transmitted over the network, even though they were being generated.
It turns out that the image generation was actually silently failing because I was missing fonts.
animated emojis were never under server boosting as far as I know? I can't think of a feature that Discord has made paid that was once free outside of trial periods... ever (with the possible exception of gamewisp emojis which I believe we should discount)
It might help to think of it like email. If you sign up with gmail, you have a gmail account. You don't necessarily have a microsoft account but people @outlook.com can still send your @gmail.com account email and you can still read it no matter where it's from
In a similar way, you have a kbin.social account. You don't have a lemmy account but you can still see posts from people in lemmy.world
