Description

How to reproduce:
- make sure to copy a long text (for me it's usually an URL) into clipboard
- go into Keybase
- write something (in my case, sth like "here's the download link to the new version")
- press enter
- immediately after, press CTRL+V (paste) and press enter again

**Expected result:**
first line reads "here's the download link to the new version"
second line is the copy-pasted text

**Actual result:**
first line disappears, only second line is shown

After going into another chat and coming back, both lines are shown.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the sequence in the Keybase chat composer: send a message, immediately paste a long clipboard value, and send it. Compare the visible conversation with the expected two lines, then switch chats and return to verify whether the first line reappears; done means both messages remain visible immediately after sending.
