Users can now decide if they want to send a message on: - <kbd>enter</kbd> - <…kbd>shift + enter</kbd> If you choose <kbd>shift + enter</kbd>, <kbd>enter</kbd> will add a linebreak. Note that meta key + enter will always send a message. ![Screenshot 2024-12-26 at 18 42 39](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/15ee0cb2-a901-4ab4-b447-5ff54cca7d90)
