I only have one problem with this extension and it's the fact that, for some reason, you can't hide your servers the same way you can hide your DMs. Instead of being able to just have them automatically hidden so where you can just unhide them by hovering over a bar like the DMs list, you have to click an ugly, bulky button in the top-right corner of the screen.
