Had an edit on my release removing the discord link.
I couldn’t find this rule anywhere and there is no explanation.

See this post by Icehax.
this has already been discussed with an element a while ago, and he confirmed that posting discord in any release isn’t allowed, the circumnstances don’t matter

also, small edit: other posts that have it have probably been overlooked by the moderators, if you flag them, im sure they will be happy to remove the links.
Elements have determined that Discord links are no longer allowed outside of #server-development:server-bazaar topics.

I don’t understand the reasons behind this rule, but at least it should be officially written somewhere (as all rules should).

It is however already mentioned here:
Any ‘look at my Discord chat’, ‘register on my site’, ‘go to my site to download’ and so on in releases will not be tolerated . This includes ‘early access for people registered/joined/…’ and similar.
Also, wherever possible, upload your resources to the forums’ file uploading system, unless they’re too big (i.e. they’re models/images/…).

That’s strange, the post is pinned but I can’t find it. No idea how discourse handles pinned topics.
edit: they probably don’t stay pinned after being read

@Imagic You can actually unpin them so they don’t appear at the top of the category for you.
EDIT: The post actually isn’t pinned for some reason.
