Would it be possible to search to find a DM for those of us who have lots of DM chats open?

Hi, thanks but there’s already an opened feature request about this:

> We’d appreciate the ability to search for chats too. Right now, I’m trying to move a community off Discord. Discord content is searchable though, so it is only of the reasons the group doesn’t want to make the move. I feel that very few in our community will make the effort to move something into a topic. Especially since that is a multi-step process buried several layers deep.
