Describe the problem

In the current version of cinny, a long message can take up the whole screen, which can make it hard to catch up with what happend.

Describe the solution you'd like

I think it would be reasonable to crop large text messages.

This means a preview (the start of the message) will always be shown, but the rest of the message will be hidden at some point. The full message can be shown through a "show all" button at the end of the message.

Alternatives considered

none

Additional context

It would be up to debate how to detect a "long message". Two options that immediately come to my mind:

• based on occupied screen space
• based on character count

I think the character count would be easier to implement, because there would be a clear limit where to make the split. However calculating the max size of a message based on screen size would be more user friendly, as a message will generally take up more space on a smaller screen than on a larger one, which should be taken into account when cropping a message.
