[Feature request] Implement Voice Messages MCS
Voice Messages are now part of the matrix spec, see MSC3245.
This is a huge feature, this is helpful for many users who suffer from physical disabilities which make it hard for them to type, and for those who struggle to understand meaning from simple text, it's also a huge feature for those who have been and continue to isolate, to be able to hear a voice message from someone who they love and adore but maybe unable to call due to busy life styles, time zone issues, or a multitude of other possibility's.
This offers more choice, more ability's and welcomes a more inclusive space for the community/communities.
From my understanding this will be a 2 step fix
-
Make the Voice messages listenable via NeoChat.
Neochat already has a GUI for displaying audio messages, but on play, you cannot hear the voice messages, even if you cannot send a voice message from NeoChat it's important to be able to play the voice message in-case it's something important, even if you cannot reply via a voice message, you can always listen and reply in text until you're able to send a voice message.
-
Allow recording and sending of voice messages via NeoChat.
Of cause many will want or need to send voice messages via NeoChat and so a GUI and code to be able to send said voice message would be beneficial to add.
