Annoying anti-virus protection with false positives

After I upload a file, I get this:

No, it is not a virus. And the fact that it marks it as a virus just shows that it's bad and doesn't really understand what it's doing: maybe sees some imports on the .exe and .dlls and marks it as a virus.

This is very annoying and also it only happened just now with one file. I sent 10 other files today and yesterday and it didn't happen. It's the same program just different versions.

Also it doesn't prevent or fix anything: if it was a virus, I'd just upload it to a google drive or whatever and send the link to a google drive to a user.

Also, nowadays discord isn't just for gamers, there are a lot of software discords, including malware analysis discord servers. What if we're in a malware analysis discord and I send a CTF file to analyze that's technically malware?

Please make discord less annoying.
