Feature Request: Show hidden when notification shows up? #104

Closed ThatJeffGuy closed 9 months ago

Hey friends!

Can we get a feature added, where if you have collapsed server list, and someone DMs you, it uncollapses until you mark as read in whatever way the user sees fit.

Currently, when it's collapsed, and someone DMs you, it's kinda hidden unless you see the red dot on the tray icon or heard the sound, etc.

For right now, I am not going to have it expand the entire server list if there is an unread DM, but in the upcoming release, I am adding the option to have an unread DM badge next to the Discord wordmark in the upper left corner (see attached image)

EDIT: For extra clarity, I am not having it auto-expand since, as the expanded/collapsed state of each element is tied to an internal variable, updating that variable would have unintended negative side-effects
