It would be nice to be able to write multiline comments.

In slack and other chats, this is usually done by pressing alt+enter.

The standard is shift+enter, not alt+enter.

I've never seen it done with alt+enter. Alt+enter does nothing for me in Discord.

Alt+enter cannot safely be used in Windows due to some language input methods using it.

If you think this is a mistake, please leave another comment listing which OS you are using, which service you are using (Discord, Slack) and which language you are using.

Sorry, I should have made it more clear -- use shift+enter in Ripcord, not alt+enter. Alt+enter cannot generally be used by an application in Windows because users will expect it to either do nothing or to fullscreen the program.

Shift+enter is the standard that works across Ripcord, Slack's web and desktop client, and Discord's web and desktop client.

I agree shift+enter is fine, but for the record alt+enter is the standard in some mac applications - most notably messages.

Interesting, I didn't know that. OK, I'll give this more consideration.
