Yes, I agree! This has definitely been solved a million times before, in many different ways (including how I used Signal before).

But that’s also the point of why I made this: I want to solve it exactly for my needs. And there’s a certain kind of satisfaction in using your own tools, where you know exactly where the sharp edges are, how to modify them to fit evolving needs, and they aren’t dumbed down to some common denominator.

And I wanted to try out Claude.
