I was just reading the post about staying one chat room and it got me thinking. Anytime I’ve been in chat on mobile, pressing the return key doesn’t seem to send the message. It does on desktop but on mobile it just puts in a new line. This works on most other online sites I’ve used on my phone I can just press the return key on the keyboard on my phone to get it to send.
I can’t remember if I’ve asked about this before but I was wondering if there’s any reason for this not to be working on mobile?

Mods don't typically use the platform on mobile so it's not something we deal with ourselves, but my guess would be it's just the way the platform is built. It's not the most modern system, so it wouldn't surprise me if an 'enter to send' feature just doesn't exist for the mobile version.
Anyways, yeah. Just wanted to mention this.
Want to hurt me… go ahead
Wish to bully me…I’m used to it
Want to talk crap about me…go on then
Want to make me cry…feel free
Ah yes that rings a bell!
Plot thickens it may be a device/OS thing - I can't see anything on our side that controls this, so it might be down to how your device interacts with the platform, which is likely to vary.
@River what device/OS combo do you use? Likewise @independent_?

Unfortunately this is quite important for accessibility reasons @JJLemon18 because the send button doesn’t show up on certain screen readers. I can see how it’s annoying for some though

@independent_ Oh yea I get that. I guess I just had to vent out for all the times I sent out an unfinished mes
