Describe the solution you'd like
When using this for single user setup, it may annoy others on the target chat system when they see always
[nctalk] <markuman> my message
[nctalk] <markuman> bla blabla
So it would be nice to disable/overwrite it.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Dirty patch it like this
sed -i 's/\[{PROTOCOL}\] <{NICK}> //g' lib/MatterbridgeManager.php

Research direction

Trace how Matterbridge settings are supplied, then make the RemoteNickFormat behavior configurable or overridable as requested and verify that the default behavior remains unchanged.
