Hear me out, Personal Server Hosting.

I'm sure this idea has been brought up plenty of times, maybe really well, and what I'm gonna say is just repeated but it's an idea I had that could work, Buisness wise as well. The API/Technology could be locked down with Nitro and could have limits without people paying boosts to enable people to spend more money to expand their server.

The catch, of course, is allowing the user to have control over the services they use. Part of what I like about Teamspeak and a customer of voice chat software is to have control. For safety legally, they could have people Aceept users that can't just connect randomly, and have a "knowledge wall" for people, so that way someone who in a hypothetical would be in a scam they can't just click a button and expose their IP to the server. For example, it could be a dev console that you'd have to add to the discord using dev mode alongside a launch argument in the shortcut on Windows, and for Linux, it could be a command line argument that is only available for people who know about the Developer Portal.

As much as I personally don't like paying for an API it makes sense, and it could also encourage people to make their own servers when a new developer sees they can make bots. As a business expense, it makes sense to have like a "basic tier API feature" and then a "nitro tier API" For developers.

maybe it's a dumb idea, let me know in the comments!
