Some pictures are lost when exporting chat #29079

Description

@blastrock

Steps to reproduce

  1. Post a lot of picture all at once in a chat
  2. Export the chat

Outcome

What did you expect?

The export should contain all the pictures

What happened instead?

Images are named with a date-time, like image-7-30-2024 at 4-22-57 PM.jpg. So if two images are posted within the same second, only the first one will be saved. This happened to me when a friend posted a lot of photos on WhatsApp, all the messages were received in the same second.
