Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Crossposting in our Discord channel is now becoming a thing in our Discord server because people keep on derailing things (me included) sigh

Let's be explicit about the command and not rely on too many keywords. We are IT professionals here. :)

My proposal for the solutions:

  1. User reply to a post they want to crosspost.
  2. Then user type /crosspost #meme-and-shitposting.

Just realized that DiscordJS has some functionality regarding crossposting channels while I was working on #82 . Maybe it can be utilized.

We can't use the bot's slash command when replying to a message
