Address misleading copy in group chat empty state #595

Open saulmc opened 2 months ago

This is NOT actually the beginning of my conversation; I just haven't brought over any message history from earlier installations.

This should be addressed in a more comprehensive refresh of the empty state.

@saulmc Are we waiting for design feedback here? Or what do you have in mind, I can try to scope from a technical perspective

saulmc commented 1 month ago

@alexrisch Still needs product/design direction. Could be as simple as updating the string for now, but we likely will want to do more. /cc @covrter

Does the app know the difference in state between:

"actually the beginning of my conversation"
"just haven't brought over any message history from earlier installations"

Or do we need a design that "covers" both possibilities in one view?

Agreed that empty states need a more holistic upgrade, too.

@covrter We need a design to work with both, we don't have a way to know if it's the beginning of the group, or just newly added

covrter commented 1 month ago

@alexrisch Word, and if it's "newly added (from prior installation)" is there any action the user can take to go and get the prior content? (Or what will trigger it to sync?)
