Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
As a user of the dev.to community, I would like a call to action on the profile of someone I follow, to facilitate beginning/continuing a conversation with them.

Describe the solution you'd like
The motivation for this is quick access to starting a conversation with someone if you follow them and happen to be on their profile. As well, someone with more than a handful of followers is currently unable to find a user easily in dev connect.

To compliment this story, consider a lookup field on the dev connect page so a user could filter who they're looking for quickly. Also, as shown in the picture, I'd make the "Following" button a less prominent action than the "Chat" button. Also, I'm not sure about the wording "Chat"

Describe alternatives you've considered

This makes sense. @mariocsee let's make this part of the new connect inbox stuff.

If anyone wants to jump in on this and maybe help out with it in coordination with #1563, we can all chat about it.

Since we edge-cache, the check for whether you can chat would be similar to how we fetch to check whether you follow.

Not stale! Will make PR with small changes that makes Open Inbox public.
