The functionality should be the other way around though.

Surely I want the modifier on the irreversible send action?

slack very helpfully reverses the order when u are in format-as-code (triple backticks) mode, giving you the worst of both worlds: it's usually enter to send, AND you can get confused about which is which!

(there's a preference to turn this off but then I forget if I've turned it off...as with most things, discord does this better & simply prohibits sending when u are inside an unclosed code block)

Current version of slack treats Enter identical in both triple-back-tick mode and normal edit mode.

It's a user setting; I'm reasonably sure the default is as the previous poster described it, because I remember having to change it when a new account was set up for me last month (could be mistaken, but reasonably sure-ish I'm not).

I'd be interested in knowing where that's set up - I'm a member of a large number of Slack Servers from various groups, people, companies - going back to 2017.

All of them demonstrate correct ``` behavior.

Slack and chatgpt behaviors here are regular reminders to me of "using tech still sucks for the [non-nerds]". I'm pretty resilient to these whoopsies and just live with it...

Teams does the discord thing mentioned in another comment, helpfully! But I swear getting into code/format blocks in Teams only works sometimes (phase of the moon?)

My company's internal GPT changes the ChatGPT enter behavior, which I definitely appreciated the forethought of.

Because nerds will not tolerate them at all?

I wish... as a nerd, slack et al is a pretty miserable experience.

Slack allows you to set this as your preference. I turned it on so that control enter Will post.

Did that after I posted too many things by accident

Sending a single-line message is much more common than wanting to add multiple lines.
