naming convention & right side for sender left for receiver option about darkwire.io HOT 1 OPEN

IMHO, the problem with this approach is that because the chat is full screen, it may be difficult to read messages on a widescreen. Also if you have more than two users, all other users will be on the same side. I see two ways to solve this:

• Limit the width of chat part and center the content (doesn't solve the more than 2 users problem)
• Adopt an approach similar to Riot or Slack and repeat the sender only at each change of speaker (or after a certain period of time) as proposed in issue #125 .

The second approach seems to me to leave more freedom and more room for messages.

What do you think ?

On the other hand, for the username problem, there is already a way to change nickname using the "/nick" command. It's not necessarily intuitive so proposing something simpler might be a good idea. It would also be useful to save the nickname in the localstorage for example so you don't have to set it each time (See #127).
