High emoji use is something I've noticed a certain generation/subgroup of developers just default to. Keeps things informal/quirky. The AI had to steal that style from someone, after all. This repo is actually very low on the

I don't see the vulnerability here, just a few bugs that should probably get looked at. Self XSS is rather useless if you need to use something like Burp to even trigger it. The random chat IDs make it practically impossible to weaponi
