Send friend requests via a link
It would be awesome if I could make a link from my account. I could easily link to my website and my customers could ask me questions much faster (or I could put a link in my Steam desc so others can add me with one click).
They could look like:
https://discord.gg/user/name#tag
Also the user should be able to turn friend requests via link on and off.
This feature is very important to me because it would make friend request such easier. Even for beginners. When I switched from Teams to Discord with some classmates a few weeks ago, many had problems sending friend requests (because of the name#tag system they didn't understand).
I'm not trying to say the name#tag system should be changed (I really like it), but a link system would be a great tool.

Second!
Why not something like twitter does it?
e.g. discordapp.com/discordname#discriminator

It baffles me how little upvotes this post recieved in two years. This should definitely be one of the top posts.
Discord has no way of accessing a users profile if you don't share a server or don't know their nickname and discriminator (assuming you don't have any open DMs with said user). Having a friend request link (like on Steam for example) can make it a lot easier to add someone from their carrd or similar websites outside of Discord. Steam implemented this even though they already have profile links. Discord needs this a lot more since profiles can't be accessed with a link. It'll make it easier and faster for people to add someone into a pre-existing group or even creating one from the ground up.

Third!
Very good idea, I would probably do something like discord.gg/users/discordname#descriminator

This is useful when you don't want to send out a server invite link but a friend link. Maybe they could add profiles like reddit has?
Also, I'm thinking it could be something like discord.gg/u/Name#Tag

Big +1!
As a few others have mentioned you can do "discord.com/USERID" to load someone's profile in a web browser, however, if you're not sharing a server and/or are friends with the specified user in the browser, it will display a page like:
I think the ability to link your discord profile is an absolutely necessary addition, and I'm quite surprised it hasn't been implemented yet.
Not only is this useful for personal website use, such as a linktr.ee site, HTML site, etc. It would also be an excellent feature to just, in general, be able to <link> to your profile and even integrate it with other sites to allow people to add you straight from there.
Once implemented, it should ideally embed on discord as well, similar to a server invite, like how Wever displayed here.
< POSSIBLE IDEA >
There could also be settings to generate a profile link (where only you can choose how your profile link(s) are used), once again, similar to a server invite, with parameters such as these example ideas:- Custom profile link (Nitro?)
- Who can generate a link to my profile?
– Only me
– My friends
– Users with verified phone number
– Anyone
– Custom (specify specific users?) - Automatic profile display options (specify automatic display [see below for more of what I mean])
Then, when creating a profile link: (Initially set to automatic profile display options)
- Expire after: [#]
- Max number of uses: [#]
- Display (+):
– Badges
– About me
– Status
– Currently playing
– Friend request
– [...]
Obviously, that concept ^ can and would need to be expanded on, but just throwing ideas out there.

There is already a feature like this, all you have to do is go to the Discord app, go to settings, click Appearance, then scroll down until you find "Developer Mode" turn that on and right click on your profile or wanted profile and click "Copy ID" after you do that you will have a number example: 686140944491479045. What you wanna do is make a link called discord.com/users/(the number), example discord.com/users/686140944491479045. After you did that you can share the link everywhere.

If it's really that simple, then what is the excuse for the Discord Team not to add a function?

definitely a must have function2 -
Discord is getting close to that experience I used to have with AIM and MSN, where I'd see who was online among my friends and just chat, outside of servers. Invite links would help us grow our friend lists and naturally lead to better adoption of Discord
