[Bug] DMs, keyboard covers measage input box (lemmy.ca)

Current Version: Boost Beta 1.0.22 (26)

Issue: When I send DMs, the keyboard always covers the message input box at the bottom of the UI, making it impossible to see what I am typing.

To workaround, I switch to the WebUI for messages (which is worse for its own reasons) or I write my message in a different app and then cut and paste it into the Boost message field.

Another workaround is closing the keyboard and pressing the full screen icon in the reply field

Fixing it for a new beta

Thank you, Rubén.

I feel silly for not noticing that icon. 🤦🏽 It does provide a new layout with the original message at the top followed by the text area control. The keyboard anchors properly at the bottom with the input control properly using a scrollpane for multi line text.

My only wish, if I may say so, is adjusting the message context at the top pane to show as:

(mvp) the last message from the other person, or ideally
the whole messages exchange (scrollable) vertically aligned to the bottom (or the last few messages)

Anyway, thanks for everything. Glad to support what you do!
