tl;dr: this turns
[{[foo]}, {[bar]}, {[baz]}]
into[{[foo, bar, baz]}]
.I don't think I mentioned this here, but I wasn't happy with
TextElement
s being created for every word in a message. Especially because many messages in Twitch chat are mostly text. This wastes about 128B/word, plus an allocation for theQStringList
with one element (24B - one string). We can do better! We can append words to existing text elements if they're eligible. A word is eligible if it would've been added with the same flags, color and style.Because we have the new snapshot tests, you can see the result right here (I hope I didn't miss anything).
