Change the member list column to have 2 tabs - channel pins and member list, so you could choose to have pins OR member list open at all times

It would be awesome if pins could be something always visible to the side of a chat channel. I don't always need to see reference the user list on the right side, so it would be cool if pins and user list were tabs I could swap between as needed.

As an example, often times important channel information is pinned in our Discord server, but few people take the effort to check the pins of a new channel before asking questions. If pins were a tab you always had open, you could swap channels and immediately see the pin list update to the side like you currently see member lists change as you swap channels. If someone has the pin tab active, they are more likely to see that information. You could have server info pinned to your general chat for example, and with the pin tab open a new person would see it immediately without choosing to look for it.
