Edit history

Problem

People who migrate from Discord to Fluxer often lose their entire history in the process. For example I have a private server with my friends that I've had for 2 years now, and the discussions there are precious to me, so I am planning to make my own script to transform an export of that history into a somewhat convincing Fluxer history on a self-hosted instance.

Proposed solution

It would be insanely useful if Fluxer supported that out of the box. It would be a lot better if everyone could benefit from something like this even on the main instance. The biggest issue to think about is how accounts should be handled in a feature like this. There would need to be a tool to associate a specific user ID with a Fluxer account, but there would need to be stuff in place to prevent people from being able to easily fabricate messages and make it seem like a Fluxer account really said them. Maybe something like, prompt the user for consent just like the way user invites work, or have some history claiming system where a Fluxer account joins the server and an interface allows them to claim that this account was their messages and have the admin confirm.
