Reply to And Quote Enhancement

Open SQL-MisterMagoo opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

I'm wondering if we can plug a gap in Gitter and introduce some sly threading...

It wouldn't be nice, because the API doesn't support it, but I'm thinking that we could maybe stick a little tag in a message when you Reply or Quote it, that we can pick up on later to thread messages.

So, each message has an Id, like this: 5cc9bdc8375bac74703963e2

Maybe we could put "In reply to: 5cc9bdc8375bac74703963e2" at the bottom of the reply/quoted message. Or a link that when you clicked it, we take you to that message and show a range of messages before/after it (I think there is an API for that)

I don't know - this may be a terrible idea - and obviously wouldn't work for anyone not using our app...

I like the idea, my concern would be the experience for the non-Blazored Gitter users. They are going to be seeing these random GUIDs at the bottom of their messages.

I guess everyone is just going to have to convert to Blazored Gitter 😆

Unless we embed them in a micro dot 😁😉
