Continuing the discussion from [Element launches an E2EE embedded chat](https://meta.discourse.org/t/element-launches-an-e2ee-embedded-chat/232256):

I was just thinking how much I’d love if Discourse could replace something like Intercom. Imagine landing on a site, entering one’s email and joining the help chat, and then with that same email being able to join a fully-fledged forum with other chats and forum topics. It seems as if it could really help bring new people into a forum, as if the embeddable chat could be a very low friction way to start the engagement.

Any thoughts?
