Typically your desktop already provides this, if not consider looking for a package to install with "desktop-portal" in the name.
The open-file dialogs in Cardinal do not have this restriction, with a fallback in case desktop portal is not available.
## Why IRC and not Discord?
Discord terms of service are absolute garbage and have no place on a free open-source project.
Don't take it from us, here are a few articles and discussions about it:

- https://stallman.org/discord.html
- https://discourse.ardour.org/t/ardour-discord-server/88399/
