Use author instead, that property always exist on newly received messages.

the 2nd screenshot is when the function is specifically using message.user

Now this function, whatever it actually is doing, wants a member, giving it a user won't work.

If this really requires a member, you might want to fetch the member in case it's missing.
Note that webhook messages do not come with one and you won't be able to fetch one.
