I can’t overstate how big of a fan I am! There are certainly a few rough edges (particularly with attachments and gifs for text convos) but other than that it’s been great. I use the iMessage integration but only with one friend cause I’ve been nervous to rely on it. The devs are really good at communicating when there is an outage which gives me a lot of confidence.

ISO dates are the goat because they string compare correctly. Just yesterday I shaved 2 full seconds off a page transition by removing a date parse in the middle of a hot sorting loop. Everything should use ISO in my opinion.

I finally gave up on rcs and I’m on beeper now. I had one or two friends that it just never works with and there is no way to disable it per conversation so I was unable to talk to just those people. Hopefully when beeper adds rcs soon it’ll be better.

Well that’s the beauty of open apis, third party clients and web frontends are on the same level as the “official” solution so it is ultimately customizable!

Is it safe to say that reels has failed? It definitely didn’t eat tiktoks lunch but I’ve used reels loads without ever using TikTok. I think it largely an age/demographic thing.

I quite like it, my only complaint is that the Android auto support is not great. It seems to lose track of what podcast I’m playing s lot of the time. The customization and queueing features are great though.
