Fucking hell, I'm using finch to handle discord notifications on my pinephone from my girlfriend. If discord starts enforcing the no 3rd party client thing I'm dumping it.

finch?
Aaron Finch. He's an Australian cricketer bloke. I guess OP's girlfriend is an Aussie, so he uses finch as a mediator. And OP seems to be saying he'll dump the girlfriend if finch isn't allowed to mediate.
Aussies... Goodness.
I'm guessing the ncurses-based IM client based on libpurple (in other words, the text-based version of pidgin).

Which I used quite a bit when that kind of thing was more useful

Ah, thank you! I did a quick search (just "finch") but nothing relevant was on the first page. "finch software" got me what I wanted (a few results down the page).
