[Feature Request] Channel ID for notifications on config file
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Hi, I saw on the example configuration file: // By default, the bot will DM the owner if the bot is running and a new version of the bot // becomes available. Set this to false to disable this feature. updatealerts=true so like the command "help" the bot send a private message (PM) to the user, but many users has set a different privacy for PM so the bot can't communicate to the command issuer.
What is your ideal solution to the problem?
I was thinking about adding a channel ID variable that can be set on config file to send bot notifications like updates on a chosen channel of the server
How would this feature be used?
Set the discord channel ID for bot notifications on config file

Sir, the bot can always DM its owner. It may loose ability to access that channel.
Apologies if I misunderstand, but I'm not sure I really understand the purpose or need of this. Do you have DMs disabled everywhere, even in private servers? This feels somewhat excessive, the config is already fairly large as it is. Is it really necessary to add this as another configuration option?
This would be a nice thing to have. Many users these days have DMs from non friends disabled, so piping help info to the channel should be an option. About the update messages, its fine to keep them dm based.
