It’s really annoying to accidentally hit a key, then feel like I have to send a full message. Why is this the ‘standard’ among chat programs now, without even the option to turn it off?

Who is fighting for stuff like this?

    Lol. The amount of times I’m actually typing something and then think “nahhhhh, not worth it” and delete the whole thing anyway I think my friends are all used to this 😅

      I accidentally hit characters and assume they all see me ‘typing’ for the next 12 hours until I notice.

        I think the “typing” status is debounced to a few seconds only. You won’t appear to be typing if you stop actually typing. At least that’s how most messengers work that I use.
