Will there ever be a better solution than this hack? So far I've heard of SIMS and other XEPS but they never got implemented by major clients. Why? What is needed to fill this gap with a proper solution? Maybe even one capable of showing a blurred placeholder/preview of the media file before its upload is finished? That way the media and text messages would keep their initial order and not get shuffled around by the delay introduced through the "first upload then send message with url" approach currently used. - tmolitor _______________________________________________ Standards mailing list Info: https://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/standards Unsubscribe: standards-unsubscr...@xmpp.org _______________________________________________
