Yes I hotspot from my phone often. A VPN app might be needed to get around any adult content filter you have on your account / contract with your network provider. I use Surfshark but you can use these free options from the app store which work fine - Hotspot Shield or ProtonVPN. Otherwise it works

Discord won't even start up now.
