Messages Reliability Improvements
A series of reliability and UX improvements to the messaging system launched last week.
What's improved
- WebSocket reconnection — Messages now automatically reconnect when your connection drops, with a new WebSocketManager architecture that handles visibility changes and network interruptions.
- Inline GIFs — GIFs now render inline in conversations instead of as download links.
- Attachment improvements — Images render immediately when sent (optimistic updates), URLs no longer overflow the message bubble, and attachments use the storage backend for reliable delivery.
- Content pipeline — A new centralized approval page for managing community content.
