Thoughts / Roadmap to make Delta Chat attractive for "ordinary" users [rich text, image compression quality]

Howdy Delta chatters At first a BIG thank you to all who have contributed to Delta Chat over the last years. It has really evolved since I tested it for the first time two or three years ago. Features like the easy transfer of profiles from one device to another, the speed improvement introduced by chatmail relays in comparison to email servers, the mandatory E2EE and the rising number of functionalities in mobile and desktop clients makes the messenger “ready for the masses”. …

Image optimization

Don’t want to do necroposting here but I think it should be possible to configure the “strength” of the compression algorithm. Pasting a screenshot from a 2K screen into DeltaChat with the “balanced” compression option set results in something like this: [grafik] As people are used to have a more fine-grained control over the quality of images DeltaChat should do the same. Otherwise people might say: DeltaChat suxx because the image quality of my last vacation picture is garbage. So I think…

The ability to remove media compression

It’s been a long time since I asked you to remove the compression.

Well, please add the uncompressed function already, just in the settings you will be able to select the uncompressed option, wh…

If you like you also can show in this window a checkmark (unchecked by default) remembe…

Overcompression Bug

Follow up on this bug report The new automatic compression for images is too high. I send a lot of text screen shots in Delta and the automatic image compression is making them difficult to read — fuzzying up small text. Can we get a setting for “Outgoing Media Quality” to only do lossless compression? a global “Media Quality / Lossless”, would do more harm than help for overall UX if “just so enabled” as the receiver’s bandwidth the sender cannot know about would be wasted Seems like th…

Addition of automatic media download feature

I’d love to propose a feature which I believe will be of extreme help to both the platform and its users. The name of the feature I’m proposing is an Automatic media download feature. The automatic media download feature is a feature which should be developed and implemented. It should provide users with control over how media files such as pictures, videos, audios, and documents are downloaded when shared within the delta chat application. Automatic media download feature should be the name o…
