a thing that bothers me with Jitsi is the design of some components,
especially the text chat.
The main points are:
-old messages from history are grey (by default), so they are hard to read
-name and date of messages catch your focus instead of the content
-the message "Jitsi is recording the conversation..." just appears
inbetween your own messages without any separation
-it is hard to tell which message belongs to whom
-because no text is separated it looks unstructured
So I created a design preview in html (it is inspired by common
messangers). I would be willing to invest my time in implementing this
design (in two/three weeks from now). I already inspected some of the
code I would need to change.
My question is, whether this is actually wanted or if there are things
that make it very complicated.

A less "programmer style" gui would be nice to have indeed.
I personally do not have a problem with it. The theme should be switchable.
