TLDR: Making a proper frontend server for SFID management, as the current rocket server doesn't allow for a easy way.

For those who will say WASM, good luck supporting the Wii U in that regard.

Putting this on the git for a proper discussion, but my proposed idea is to do a separate web server to manage your SFID, authorize applications, and control applications you've authorized.

We can also use this server to send out emails, reset passwords, ability to delete accounts(gdpr compliance), and for joining the discord.

This server will be separate from the website, just like how Nintendo did their management. The website can be turned into a blog and a way to find FAQ with installation guides. It could also be possible to make our own forum and discontinue the discourse.

Discontinuing the discourse for our own forum also allows us to give guests a better way to contact support(becuz both dc & forum as of rn require sfid), as with the current setup we have its basically impossible to do so.

Maybe can be the same server as the account settings server? No idea whether that would be a good idea
