Combine Friends and Chat Windows
I think that instead of chat or group chat windows being separate from the friends window, they should be one window, where the chat shows up to the side of the window when a person is clicked on. The chat section should be able to be expanded and collapsed to save screen space when looking at friends list but not chatting.

I wanted to add, you should be able to fully customize the windows. Toggle on off docking isnt enough, i want friends list ton the left side of the chat window not on the right. Or what if i want it on the top or bottom? for those who want it there. Personally i want it on the right side.

Besides that, friends list is now grouped in categories, I want to choose if i want just a simple list or not. I prefer a simple plain old school list.

And the group chat should be also be able to customized or removed from the friendslist as you please. Or atleast minimized if you dont use it.

Furthermore im not a big fan of the discord style but being able to customize it to a style i prefer is what I would want. Rather than a fixed style. So for me the beta is not really what i seek. Unless i can customize it so i can still have a semi-old style with new added features.
there is a slider directly above the group chats bar, the cursor even changes but if you click on it, it doens't do anything. So that ones a Bug, imho.
Edit: Agree on the sticky to left issue.

The slider does work but the information in the group chat's bar is what keeps it from closing down when you slide it downwards, i think that is intentional.
