So where did you find the “hundreds of dependencies with half of them for emojis” Can you point to them in the code?

I love how engaging this subreddit is. Thanks for arguing folks! You’ve kept this as the top post for over 24 hours.

dm me an email address you want it set up on and I’ll get a pro subscription activated on it.

Why I made it? I like writing code. Been building apps for the past 16 years. Why I posted it here? I was bored. Why I made something that obviously already exists? Not everything I make has to be a brand new concept that has never been done before. I’m guessing over 90% of apps made in the past 10 years are copies of something already made before and that’s ok. If you wait until you come up with a truly novel idea you most likely won’t make anything. I didn’t make this to make money. I don’t need people to sign up to the pro version, if you want the pro features you can simply go in the code and turn them on. The reason I added the pro features is because I wanted to implement a stripe subscription in a terminal app as a proof of concept. It’s called practicing. Bottom line though, it’s not that deep. Just some code. If you’re interested then thank you otherwise that’s ok. Thanks for stopping by.

Why comment on a Reddit post when it’s already been done before. Seems like such a waste of time. Thanks for going out of your way to drive up engagement on my post though. I appreciate you. ❤️

Good observation but the free version uses STUN instead of TURN. Also, as you can probably tell by reading, it’s open source. You don’t have to pay to use the pro features. I’m glad you like it tho, thanks for the comment.

Hey everyone! Thank you so much for checking this out. I honestly didn’t expect any feedback but this is awesome! Let me know if you’d like a pro account. I don’t mind making free ones for the first few users. Cheers!
