Hey @SystemKeeper @Ivansss what do you think about this? I know it seems silly, but in my experience it should be a good enough UX improvement to be able to quickly recognise the type of attachment directly from the message text. Let me know if you need any change to be able to merge this, by the way I was thinking about adding one method per MIME type in |
Hey @e-caste |
@SystemKeeper Yeah makes sense! It would also allow us to expand on this idea in the future, like for example Telegram shows a very small thumbnail of the actual attachment instead of an emoji for its kind (though it showed an emoji in previous versions). |
Yea, that sounds like a nice idea! I think that makes more sense than emojis, at least for files and images. For "objects" (poll, map, contact, etc). I think emojis are totally fine |
Hey @SystemKeeper thanks for asking. I don't think I'll have time in the near future for this, but you can absolutely add more commits to this PR if you need to update it to be able to merge it |
