I think so. At least that’s where I noticed this, and the report in the component’s topics also reads like that to me:

> This morning I’ve found that the gif modal in the chat on the mobile breakpoint isn’t working. The option is there in the context menu but pressing it does nothing. I can reproduce it in a desktop browser that is emulating a mobile breakpoint and it happens across all browsers and device types that I’ve tested so far. There are no console errors, and everything works correctly in larger breakpoints. Is anyone else seeing this issue?
