Convert discord mentions to matrix mentions

[Kitanit]

situation: logged into my account discord, logged into the channel on the server and there I was mentioned, will be as a mention of the account and not me personally in matrix

Not really sure what the issue is here... do you mean you got notified for a message that you did not expect to be mentioned in? In that case, you may have been notified due to your display name appearing in the message. There is a setting in element to disable this behavior.

No, I mean that I logged into my discord account example#1234 example#1234 was mentioned in the chat but in the matrix it looks like a mention of example#1234 and not kitanit

*at least that's what the mau telegram can do, when mentioning my telegram account it mentions matrix

I am not a go dev. This is pretty shitty code. But in case you're using a self-hosted instance, and are the only user of that instance, you should be able to make this work as a temporary solution.

EDIT: Messed up the code, as I said, not a go dev. This version does actually work.

Replace PUPPETMXID with the Matrix ID of your discord account puppet equivalent. Send a message from Discord in any bridged channel, and copy the Matrix ID of your Discord account (Looks like @discord(DISCORD ID):example.com)
