Discord's File Size Limit's Too Small

Seriously, Discord file size limit is way too small. Even other big messaging platforms like Telegram, has a bigger limit (which even goes up to 2GB), and they can handle a lot of users. What can you even do with 8mb? You can only send pictures and very small files most of the time. You can't even send a 30 second camera recorded video showing your problem, can't send a 15-minute speech recorded from your phone's voice recorder, and can't even send a photoshop file with just a few layers. 8mb is way too small. Some people might comment here, "can't you just compress your files by using a compressing application, or just use a third-party online cloud drive to send your file?" It's too inconvenient, it'll like take a few minutes more just sending a file using these methods that's also small but is just a few kilobytes bigger than 8mb. Discord should increase it's file size limits for free, and also nitro users. I think this is already good enough for most people: Free: 8mb > 25mb Nitro Classic: 50mb > 100mb Nitro Full: 100mb > 250mb (maybe the server boosting perks should be still the same, level 2: 50mb, level 3: 100mb) Or if you can even handle more, this would be great! Free: 8mb > 50mb Nitro Classic: 50mb > 250mb Nitro Full: 100mb > 1gb (change the server boosting perks this time: level 2: 100mb, level 3: 250mb) This would be good for most users, and now file-sharing on Discord should be more convenient. 8mb is too small, and they should really increase it.

I think If the file size limit gets bigger, additionally needs limits that count of the heavy file sending of a day in Discord.
maybe they don't like sending heavy files with Discord, because it could cause service deterioration.
I think your opinion looks good.
but, I think keeping the existing file size limit and additional, putting a limit of 3 or 4 per day if the file heavier than 8MB is a more appropriate and realistic suggestion. (below than 8MB as usual there no limits.)
also, the above suggestion is based on users who are not nitro users. so, in the case of the nitro users, must have other limits on sending heavy files.
I hope your suggestion come true.

A lot of people on other threads say "Just buy nitro" or "cloud storage isn't free"

The cloud storage problem could easily be fixed by just deleting the cache after a few days.
