Embeddable chat that stages users

Just thinking about this more, as I’m putting “contact me via” buttons on my site, including email, Instagram, FB Messenger, and maybe Signal, and frankly I’d probably just prefer a Link for new DM / personal chat message with pre-filled information - #11 by lindsey and have it create a staged user who directly messages me on my Discourse forum.

While I can do this with the email, I find even I don’t want to click on a site and open up an email app on my phone and send an email, and I imagine many users might not want to either. I suppose I could create a textbox that someone fills out and it submits the form to the Discourse incoming email address, and yet I think a new chat DM link would be much faster, especially if those links get updated to allow people to send a message to a specific channel and not just individuals.

Any updates on whether staged users for chat might be implemented?
