If I ever had infinity money, I would put together a team to develop chat software specifically designed for people with lots of contacts. Not that I& #39;m a huge popufur, but I& #39;ve got far more people trying to talk to me than I can ever keep up with, and no way to manage them all
The technology and design obviously exists to solve this problem. But all the existing chat apps just... don& #39;t. They don& #39;t even acknowledge that a problem like this could possibly exist.
For instance, both just put all your contacts in one huge, long list. That& #39;s fine if you have like... 10. I have hundreds in Telegram, and I& #39;m constantly forgetting about people because there& #39;s no way to organize, group, categorize or otherwise manage my contacts. In 2021!
It drives me absolutely bananas. Who designs this software? Do they not actually USE it themselves? Does not a single person ever think "hey, this could be better"? It& #39;s so mindbogglingly incompetent.
