Display chat messages next to each other if there was very little delay between sending them

gergorius

The idea is to display chat messages that were sent within less than half a second by different users in one line. This would help readers realize that the latter could not have been a response to the former if it's author is a human, and that it in fact is if the author is a bot that is fast enough. Of course this feature would be optional for the PC client as a third variant next to the "Cozy" and "Compact" message display options. The ordering would be in chronological order.

This feature can also help with channels that have a lot of users sending messages at the same time as it slows down the automatic scrolling. It would also feel very unique.

Here's a mockup:

    And if one message is a paragraph and the other a single word?

    And if you add in latency or clients on devices with vastly different performance, might be more false positive and false negative groupings than helpful ones.
