Discord usernames can contain pretty much any unicode character, which is a problem for Overpass when it comes to displaying streams.
Problem
Currently, stream URLs look something like this /watch/<username>
This can potentially become a problem if the username looks something like "Example / User", the problems it introduces are:
Unless the slashes are escaped by the browser, the stream will simply not work.
The URL becomes harder for the user to type, if they just want to watch a user when they're live.
Potential solutions
Force every user to create a "display name" and make sure the name only contains letters, numbers and simple symbols.
Generate a display name based on their username on the server side.
