I thought discord shared your IP with chat room admins. I don’t remember very well.

No. You can be banned from individual servers by IP, but admins of those servers don't actually see it.

I am not familiar with Discord's hosting model. Can you host a server on your own hardware, or are all servers run by Discord?

They did the Microsoft thing and misused a word to confuse people.

A Discord server is more or less a chat room on the Discord service.

It's all on discords services. You don't host your own.
