Description Dominik George 2025-02-18 09:02:23 UTC

SUMMARY

I received a large text file (8.1 KiB) in a chat room and accidentally chose to display it inline.

Ever since then, NeoChat hangs eternally every time I open the respective chat room.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Receive a large text file in a room (8.1 KiB in my case)
2. Click the button on the text file message to show it inline
3. Kill NeoChat and restart it, open the room again

OBSERVED RESULT

NeoChat hangs.

EXPECTED RESULT

NeoChat does not hang ;).

I can't really reproduce this. 8KiB isn't particularly large, certainly not large enough that it would explain neochat hanging... are you on particularly weak hardware?

I'd say no.
