Add Right to Left (RTL) support to Discord

Nelly
Currently, Right to Left text in Discord is often flipped, since Discord does not support Right to Left languages (such as Arabic, Hebrew, Persian...). Adding support to Right to Left languages is as easy as adding 1 line of code. Refer to this reddit post: https://redd.it/4zvag6 All that is needed is to change the 'unicode-bidi' rule for the text in Discord. Left to Right languages will not be affected and Right to Left languages will finally be able to chat normally. It's a win-win situation!

    This is such a trivial feature, and the fact that it hasn't been implemented for so long is embarrassing.

    Seems like lately Discord is focusing more on monetizing and less about adding important and heavily requested features.

    It is absurdly simple, adding this css snippet to the browser seems to fix everything:

    div[class^="markup"] {unicode-bidi:plaintext;}

    Please consider adding this to your cross-plat app, it'll make quite the difference.

    This request was originally submitted by me, around 2 years ago (it was resubmitted by Nelly because of, I assume, some kind of migration). I tried searching for it to see if there's any progress and couldn't find it. Even now, when you search 'RTL', you can't see this post.

    I assumed it was removed so I resubmitted it here.Within 1 day it got 14 upvotes (I didn't even send it to anyone). This issue is still affecting many people using Discord on a daily basis, and the fact that this issue is still not resolved, despite the solution being so simple, is disappointing to say the least.

    Discord, Please add this ASAP.

    This will discourage so many people from using Discord on desktop in the Arabic community !!

    Text align is good on right! just keep it like that, and improve it by fixing this bug:


    Everyone here will get used to it, they just need some time.

    How is this still not a thing, it's such a simple and obvious thing to add, it makes absolutely no sense to me why they are ignoring this post

    You must support Right to Left languages (such as Arabic, Hebrew, Persian...)

    It does not make sense that there are only languages left to right,
    If you listen to us and do it - because it's really desirable, it will really do a lot of good.
