That number for the amount of text they accumulate is underwhelming. It adds up to 15TB which would fit on a $300 HDD. Sure it has to be indexed, searchable, able to be quickly accessed, probably tiered into RAM or SSD, racked into some kind of system, housed in a data center, powered, etc. 40x that would be less than one of those bay area engineers.

Discord is also a file host. Free users have infinite storage, but can not upload files bigger than 25 MiB
