Enter as newline#

Enter inserts a new line and a shortcut you choose sends the message. Click the keyboard button next to the message box to pick which modifier combinations send.

Command palette#

Search every action from the keyboard: modules, dialogs, export, scrolling, copying the URL and more. Arrow keys move, Enter runs, Escape closes.

Selection toolbar#

Select text in an answer to ask a question about it, have it explained or summarized, fact-check it, or quote it into the message box.

Layout#

Max Width removes width limits so answers use the whole window. The right sidebar can be removed separately from the menu.
