Idea: Add support for other social media/platforms in the player database

[Wolfy76700]

With the bird app doing bird app things, I think now would be a good time to be able to have a couple alternatives for platforms you can find the players at in the data

The most common ones I can think of for the FGC right now would be YouTube, Twitch, Mastodon and Instagram. I believe StartGG might have info for both Twitch and YouTube but not the other two.

Thinking about how this could be implemented, I think we could separate the Twitter fields into a list of fields with options to choose which platform it corresponds to between:

• Twitter
• Bluesky
• Twitch
• YouTube
• Instagram
• Tiktok
• NicoNico
• FGC Network
• Smash.Today

Here’s how I can see it being implemented in a first pass:

• Twitter field gets replaced by a "Social" field
• Add a small icon menu on the left of the field which selects what kind of handle needs to be displayed
  • Selecting a social media platform loads in the corresponding handle
• Though only one social media handle can be displayed at a time, all of them can be saved to the local database
• Overlays get updated accordingly with the correct logo and handle

only one social media handle can be displayed at a time

Would this be a restriction just with official overlays or a restriction on what is written to program_state.json? I see no reason to not let the overlay decide what to show, allowing the overlay to fade between social media profiles would be cool

We could make it a setting in settings.json realistically and still have all of the data in the program_state.json, that is an option we have ^^
