gollark: I think the problem is that it's a channel and not an actual invite link.

gollark: Is it safe to do the API call outside `onMount`?

gollark: Oh, never mind, I misread it and it does, weird.

gollark: `<h1>{result?.title} {console.log(result)}</h1>` doesn't ever show it becoming `undefined`.
