A quick feedback on using the chat: the process for contacting someone (going through the “+” in the discussion section) lacks a bit of clarity. It would be great to be able to search for a user directly in the chat search bar, like we do for messages. That would save valuable time! This is just my personal opinion, but I think many people would benefit from a more comfortable experience.
