Discord webapp integration for easy platform switching.

Problem

Not everyone has moved to Fluxer yet, so many people still have contacts spread across Discord and Fluxer. This means constantly switching between two apps, losing the benefit of having a single place to manage all your conversations.

Proposed solution

Add an optional Discord field when adding or editing a contact on Fluxer.

For DMs:

• When adding a contact, you can optionally enter their Discord username and user ID
• When you open that contact's DM in Fluxer, it opens the Discord web interface inside the chat field and navigates directly to the DM with that user
• The user is already logged into Discord in their browser via their own account, so no extra authentication is needed on Fluxer's end

For servers:

• You can link a Discord server (via invite link or server/channel ID) to a Fluxer server
• Opening that server in Fluxer would open the corresponding Discord channel in a new tab

Does thisi defeat the purpose of having a better, safer, open source and Europe based Discord alternative? Maybe. But on the other hand, this does make switching a lot easier for users.

Would love to hear if others find this useful or have ideas to refine it!

I don't really see an issue with this, it could also be handy to be able to optionally add your own discord ID to Fluxer so that your discord friends can find you in Fluxer via search.

We will not be supporting this. While we theoretically could embed an iframe from discord.com into the app or use an official SDK to avoid violating their TOS, the extra work is not worth it at this time.
