Dear creative minds,
you have noticed our latest chat changes. We will now show you why we have done these changes. We have run a poll for the last two days and what you can see is that the community is pretty sure about their decision.
We also done several customer interviews whitch have a high impact on our decision too. IP blocking was enabled so that you can only vote once.
So this leads us to the actual version of the chat. We will stick to this version of it and surely improve it in the future with further updates but the design of messages is pretty much nailed now.
We have done several other smaller changes:
1. Social share buttons are now on the dashboard too.
2. Chat user name color picker is updated to offer only pastel colors that will make sure they work with dark and bright mode.
3. Multistream description preview fixed.
That’s it for today. We really hope you will enjoy these changes.

I don’t agree with this decision. Voters in general seem to want a Bubble version one way or another with all Bubble options combined = 1659 votes vs No Bubble with 1002.
It isn’t fair to divide the poll options for Bubble up three ways. Should redo it with straight up Bubble vs No Bubble.
As an artist who frequently uses Picarto to stream and engages with my audience via the chat a lot throughout 5+ hour streaming sessions, it is important to me to be able to quickly glance over at the chat and immediately be able to distinguish between each message, and I personally feel a Bubble is extremely important in being able to do that.
So thanks to bubble being split into three alternatives the non-bubble version won, despite 62% onviously preferring a chat with bubbles? Doesn’t seem very fair :/
I personally prefer the bubble version and am neutral between the different kinds of bubble versions. I just picked one cause I couldn’t exactly pick all three.
Imagine doing the US election this way. You can either pick Clinton or Bernie with a red shirt, bernie with a blue shirt or Bernie shirtless…?
I couldn’t even tell the difference between the three bubble options that were on the poll, so to me it just looked more like “Bubble vs No Bubble” but with filler options
