Problem

The desktop app still uses the default context menu which is not useful for this app and it seem out of place in the app.

*Solution

Replace it with a custom context menu. Even a simple context menu that is more relevant like in Cherry Studio is enough.

This is indeed the default context menu. However, when text is selected, a copy button is displayed, and when in an input box, cut/paste buttons are displayed. The functionality is sufficient, so why implement another menu? Besides, other buttons such as back/refresh are not completely useless.

I don't think anyone will actually use the context menu entries for these actions and use shortcuts instead. Both Cherry Studio and Msty simply remove the most unrelated entries to make it fit.

I just started using the app today and was impressed by how small the installer was, how quickly the app started, and the support for syncing. However, when I saw the context menu, I thought it would be even better with a custom context menu to maintain the native desktop experience.

Yes, there are a few extra buttons, however copy/paste also have keyboard shortcuts. A new menu doesn't seem necessary at the moment. Labeled it as low priority.
