How can I get user’s guild nickname from a slash command?
displayName doesn’t return a user’s server nickname, and ’user’ in a slash command doesn’t include nickname property.
How should one get the nickname efficently?

npm list discord.js and node node -v version?

If this interaction was sent in a guild, the member which sent it
Despite sounding similar there is a distinct difference between users and members in Discord:
- User: global Discord user data (global avatar, username, tag, id)
- GuildMember: user data associated to a guild (guild, nickname, roles, voice, guild avatar, etc.)
- Conversion: User ➞ GuildMember | GuildMember ➞ User
* Note: Events received in cached guilds will often have both the member and user available, eg.
interaction.user and interaction.member
