gollark: Is the system to just merge the virtual channels? This would be problematic to unmerge later.
gollark: But then I realized that this had a significant problem; what happens if virtual channels A and B both connect to Discord channel 124091724?
gollark: So I was thinking of an AutoBotRobot "virtual channel" publish/subscribe bridge where Discord channels could link up to a virtual channel, and IRC could also link to that via some glue code, and all would be cool and good™, and ApioTelephone could just create virtual channels temporarily.
gollark: I want to unify these in a nice elegant™ way.
gollark: So, I run something like two different bridgey things on my server now - APIONET to various Discord channels (this was bodged into inter-discord-channel links also) and ABR's apiotelephone thing.
