The chat has always consumed a large amount of resources on the client side, but with this latest overhaul, it can easily bring a machine to its knees.

Please elaborate, what's your experience on mobile?

hi folks, i realize the chat is a work in progress... just thought i would mention this because it seemed kind of like a bug. i am using a linux computer and firefox.

when i was on the "user" tab, when i clicked on someone to chat with them, their name would be highlighted and go to the top of the list (just like in the past). but when i was chatting with one individual, and switching between the group and user tabs, it wasn't highlighting them or putting them at the top of the page.

also, the top of the tab indicated i had messages waiting, but those user names were not highlighted either, so i couldn't tell who was trying to chat with me.

appreciate all the work you are doing on this, and i look forward to whatever new features come next!

Hi,
Thank you for highlighting this. I just wanted to let you know that we are looking into it.

I tested in chat today and couldn’t replicate the issues you mentioned. Opening or receiving a private chat moved the user to the top of the user list, highlighted them in grey, and showed the notification on the tab and against the chat in the user list.

Hiccupx also tested using the same OS (Linux) and Firefox browser and was unable to replicate the issue.

Could you please try again on your end and let us know if the problem persists? If possible, please share any error messages you see, as they could help us identify the cause.

Thank you!

Edddde:
will video chat be possible?

Beachside Farmer:
Tried this today. I went to a random user and selected the drop down option. Went to their profile, went back to chat. I never clicked on the user and look at that I wasted a chat.

If it happened to me, this is definitely occurring to others.

In response to Edddde,

I removed your posts because they contained a personal email address. Sharing personal and private information can pose safety risks, and we want to make sure your privacy is protected on the site.

We expect the update to be ready and functional by the end of September at the latest. Once everything has been implemented, we’ll announce it, so please keep an eye on the forum and check the chat for updates!
