Kazokus Konekt — Private Chat Meets Community Chat

Messages has evolved into Kazokus Konekt — your private chat hub that now connects to community Rooms.

What changed

  • Messages is now Konekt — same DMs and group chats, new name. The drawer header reads "Konekt — Private Chat" to reinforce the mental model.
  • Room conversations in Konekt — When you participate in a community Room, that conversation automatically appears in your Konekt sidebar alongside your private chats. No setup needed.
  • Rooms = Community Chat — The Rooms page now shows "Community Chat" as its subtitle. Together with Konekt's "Private Chat" label, the two features form a clear pair.

Rooms UX improvements

  • Cleaner sidebar — Room list items now show just the room name and last activity time. Member counts and message counts moved to the room header.
  • Room type indicators — Color-coded pips identify room types at a glance (amber for announcements, blue for events, green for marketplace).
  • Discord-style input — The chat input now reads "Message #room-name..." so you always know where you're typing.
  • No more duplicates — Pinned rooms no longer appear twice in the sidebar.
