That other definition didn't even try. First of all, technically speaking, a webhook is a means for an app or service to provide new information to third parties as some event occurs within it. For example, GitHub uses webhooks to allow users to integrate services and automate workflows. But that's not what I'm here to say.
Second of all, as far as I am concerned, webhooks are an absolute lie with regards to Discord. You'd think it's on the same level as AHK (Autohotkey) in terms of its ease of use and the endless possibilities you can do with it. Well, it's not. Discord basically tells you to go use webhooks if you want a feature that they don't offer (which is A LOT of features). Could you achieve it? Maybe, possibly, but never certainly. Was it worth the time and effort? Hell no.
Me: I want to post to multiple servers simultaneously.
Discord: Sorry we don't have this feature. But if you seriously want it, feel free to rely on webhooks.
Me: Bah humbug.
