I will not be giving support for this. You're on your own.
If you paste anything other people give you, it may reveal your discord credentials.
You also need to realize that these features can evaporate at any time.
1. instructions on enabling the developer console:
On linux, the config lives at ~/.config/discord/settings.json, windows is mentioned in the post.
You must include a comma ( , ) on the end of the entry above where you enable it
do not use the JavaScript blob in here -- it's old

Then go into settings -> experiments (in the same category as What's New) and search (at the top) for "Enable fancy super-alpha favorites server" and set it to 1.
Right click any channel, add to favorites server. Then remember to nickname it with the server it's from (right click a channel in the favorites server), or put them in categories before you add more, so you know where they're from.
Other options that might be of interest to you: "Pronouns in profile"
