Feature Request

Context

I am a enthusiastic ChatGPT user. I use it to generate code snippeds.
I also use the chat titles to navigate in answers.

Issue: I'm always frustrated when [...]

With emojis all over the place, it is very difficult for me, comming from a perfect simplistic ChatGPT, to optically navigate open-webui.
They dominate the appearance of the text and distract my way of reading, scanning and focus on the content.

I understand that some people are super fond of emojis, looking at your page tells me, that I am probbably not fitting into your team ;-)
Especially if used as a conversational tool, some might like emojis but for me, it is just a nuisance.

I really would like to use OpenWebui but being irritated with its output, I frequently find myself going back to plain ChatGPT.

2nd issue: again, format

Is there a way to just simply put code quoted text into courier new but not making it red and look like an error?

Solution I'd like

  • Please create a user option to ban emojis from text and chat titles
  • Please create a user option to format code quoted text in the normal text color.

Alternatives I've considered

Currently, my alternative is ChatGPT. It feels more serious.

Additional context

Well basically, I guess, I ask you to create a ChatGPT like UI. Hope I do not trample on your feelings with that request.

emm... You can modify the prompt words used to generate the title so that the generated title does not contain emoticons.
I hope this helps you.

This is the Title Generation Prompt prompt that I use so that emojis aren't used in chat titles. I believe it's simply the default title generation prompt used by Open WebUI, but with the emojis stripped out so that emojis aren't used. You could even add Do not utilize any emojis to the prompt to take this a step further.

Here is the query:
{{prompt:middletruncate:8000}}

Ignore all previous instructions.

Create a brief, 3-5 word title for the previous query. The title should be succinct. Avoid using quotation marks or special formatting. Only provide the title text in your response.

Examples of titles:
Stock Market Trends
Perfect Chocolate Chip Recipe
Evolution of Music Streaming
Remote Work Productivity Tips
Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare

Video Game Development Insights
