Account Session Management

Hi, I would like to suggest account session management. I have discord for many pcs, my phone, and I often sign in on my browser on a few of these pcs. This can lead to a lot of sessions running at once and recently, discord will sign out other sessions. I don't know if this is for security but I find it a bit annoying to sign in over and over again, not just because I have to type my password but I have to grab my phone from wherever and get the security code. What I would like to suggest is session management. This would show when the session started (the first time it was used to sign in), when it was last used, the current state (connected/disconnected), the name & type of device and os of the device, discord's version on the device (release, ptb, canary + build number, etc.), its ip address (maybe?) and its location based on the ip address. I made a basic draw up of what it might look like on my twitter to discord a while back: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EHHokNSWoAEa3FE?format=jpg&name=medium

I don't understand why this isn't a thing yet, I can never tell if my damn messages being read when I don't look at it is from my own device or is something external and it's extremely annoying to have to reset my pass and 2fa just to be on the safe side.

You never know what else is logged in and it's so damn easy to just use a token as soon as you have one in your hands. Sure it's long and all gibberish but it's still possible to do things like stealing or guessing.
