You can make your own Discord servers and upload your own custom emojis, but without Nitro you can only use those custom emojis in the servers where they were uploaded.

The feature you're getting with Nitro here is the ability to use custom emojis uploaded in server A when sending messages in server B or C or D, etc. You also have to be and remain a member of server A to use its custom emojis.

Its basically Discord's version of Fortnite cosmetics.
