No validation and confirmation on comments.

[bhoomikshetty]

Describe the bug
Users are able to comment blank texts.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Enter the comments view.
2. Without typing anything, hit 'send'.

Expected behavior

1. Should not allow sending the comment if the comment is empty.
2. Should provide confirmation once comment is successfully uploaded.

Actual behavior
Clicking 'send' is calling the API with empty comment message and adding the blank comment locally.
After an error is received from the backend, the comment disappears.
This leads to a poor user experience.

Can I work on this issue?

Why is this required? No other platform I can think of has confirmation of comments validation.

Confirmation is the comment itself

If there is no content, then the send button shouldn't activate.

Is this the current methodology?

@palisadoes currently the send button is working even if the comment is blank.

@bhoomikshetty instead of confirming the comment you could just make the send button not work as suggested by palisadoes, in case of blank comment.

@bhoomikshetty I recommended making changes based on @palisadoes' comment and question.

That's my bad, I meant to say confirmation after the comment is sent.

Something like this.
