This is a bit of a fun hack.
For example, you might request https://w3champions.com/player/Ruhigengeist#1200 but this results in a broken page since no user is found. We can be smarter about this because the
#
is the "fragment" (aka "hash") part of the URL, so we can redirect on mount to the correct URL i.e. https://w3champions.com/player/Ruhigengeist%231200 and it can even work if there's a path like/matches
at the end.
