Happy to answer any questions. The idea originated from a client project where we replaced a legacy rails app with a 20mbyte Excel report that was updated with a script every x hours. Since then I can't get enough of Excel.

I asked a bunch of Thais why they switched to Line 1-2 years ago. Number one reason: cute stickers. Sending stickers, is quicker and more fun.

2'500 CHF is about the budget for a student life-style in Zurich. I expect a lot of young Swiss going on long holidays to cheaper places like south-east asia or eastern europe.

It's super popular all over south-east asia. One of the reasons are the cute and fun "stickers" that can convey 80% of your daily emotions and situations. Stuck in overcrowded subway? there's a sticker for that.

'while' is actually faster than 'for'. But in this example the while loop does extra work (mutating the array). while loops are always faster than forEach, as they simply do less work.
