Hello!
I spotted a usability enhancement which would make working with larger groups less cumbersome.
I’m coming from using the Cheogram (an xmpp client) on android. On that client, there is an option to disable scrolling down after sending a message.
Working with larger groups, where you may be replying to multiple previous messages, this cuts down on so much extra scrolling up and down when responding.
The feature is listed in their interface settings as
“Scroll to bottom”
Scroll down after sending a message
It’s enabled by default, which matches the current behavior in deltachat-android.
I’d be grateful to see a similar option implemented here.
Expected behavior
(assuming new feature is disabled)
When replying to a previous message in a group, the chat does not scroll to the bottom of the message list after sending.
Actual behavior
Current behavior is that each message sent scrolls the message list to the bottom, causing the user to lose their place in a longer chat thread.
