A lot in here to love. Non-perishable software that just works and people are happy to pay as a result.

However, you maybe missed the message wars I, II, and III starting back in ~1997.

As an Android user and software dev, realize the biggest motivation would be to reduce friction across "borders".

The 2nd bone of contentiin is having 8 excited to pay and 2 whom do not. This goes back to the common denominator.

You must eliminate friction and while noble ideals, Telegram, Signal and others have a heck of a headstart even outside of iMessage.

As an idea...make it decentralized and autonomous. Think this is happening in a couple web3 projects, but building aessage framework that could live for 100yrs without updates would be interesting.
