Description

A user reports an annoying bug, that the unread notice hides some message contents, as seen in the first screenshot. It should instead look more like the second screenshot.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the scroll offset when the unread notice is present. Look at the MessageList component and check how the initial scroll position is calculated, especially when there are unread messages.
