Changes in format for messages

The desktop browser version of discord just changed (the desktop app hasn't yet) to remove the visual line divide between different people's messages, changed the amount of space between the chat window and the text box, made the emoji/... menu pop-up much bigger, and to make whatever comment you're hovering over visually become darker

I understand some of these may be useful in terms of accessibility for some, but it's incredibly distracting and annoying to use- It would be nice if these changes could be toggled on and off, and gave the user a choice in whether to use them

  I agree. I don't enjoy these features at all.

  I'd like to see an Appearance toggle called "Disable message hover effects" where the message doesn't get darker on hover and there's also no popup. The original buttons would still be there for those that use them.

  Agreed as well, I would love a toggle to disable the message highlighting and overlay. 

  I'll miss the message line dividers but that is not as critical as the aforementioned option.

  (throwing my two cents in at the bottom of these as well, the message line dividers is critical for me but I'm fine if it's a toggle option- i've got adhd and the "wall of text" effect thats created without the dividers is making my life far more difficult than it needs to be)
