bad discord link
A post whose source is a direct link to a Discord image, rather than to the Discord message containing the image. These are considered bad links because there's no way to find the original Discord message from the image link, and the URL hash will also expire after a period of time.
If you see this warning while uploading, it means that after upload, you should change the source to the Discord message the image came from. The source should be the actual message, not just the server or channel.
Posts missing the Bad Discord Link tag can be found using this search: source:*cdn.discordapp* -bad_discord_link
