As the timeline paging is generated dynamically anyway, it would reduce the number of click required on the Show earlier/newer messages button if messages on "calm days" (i.e., with let's say less than 100 messages) could be merged to a single page.

They could be visually separated by day by headings as done by matrix clients.

Individual permalinks for each date might still be kept for consistency, or they may redirect to the merged page and an anchor link to the respective start of day.

Will reduce processing requirements and the required number of round trips if combined with #235 #236 #238

This already happens. We render 100 messages looking backwards from the day in the URL even if it is across many days.
