This topic is titled as “Chat View” but seems to have become a discussion about possible technical implementation details. I think it would be better to identify the use case that is to be addressed without focussing on how it might be achieved.

Chat View as a topic sounds like a new type of [data view](https://the.fibery.io/@public/User_Guide/Guide/Fibery-Glossary-403/anchor=view--d94cabe1-317d-4f1a-9e4e-de4d3e378f89).  
Whether the underlying data is an entity from a specific sidebar database, or an entity in the comments ‘database’ (see [here](https://community.fibery.io/t/comment-fields-and-inline-comments-to-be-entities-with-fields-comments-database/4602)) seems beside the point, if this discussion is to be had about how best to display ‘comment entities’.  
Similarly, the ability to control who can/can’t see a comment is tangential to any ideas about visualisation of the comments themselves, and seems to be the topic of discussion [here](https://community.fibery.io/t/thread-permissions/8695).
