Collapse images, GIFs and link previews in chat

Feature overview
Keep conversations easier to scan by collapsing images, GIFs and link previews in chat messages. A compact label identifies what’s hidden, and clicking it shows the media again. Message text and document attachments stay visible.

Your collapsed messages stay collapsed after a page reload on the same device.

Where to find it
In group chats, direct messages and threads, hover over a message with visual media or use keyboard focus to reveal the collapse arrow beside the first image or preview. Action-card comments are unchanged.

Who it helps
Anyone following media-heavy conversations who wants to focus on the discussion while keeping images, GIFs and previews easy to reopen.
