Here we go again! I have been using it 15 years ago.

I am a user of Hey and what I can say is the UX is dreadful. I am seeing spinner way more than I can handle, really.

I assume this proposal is to moving backwards.

Instead we would need to sort of data on client and full-body client app, doesn’t matter if it’s for web, ios, android. And the data should be given back to us - users.

The problem with that is that services like Hey become a true commodity and doesn’t lock users by keep exclusive access to their data anymore. So it’s to be figured out what is the new business model.

If you dislike it so much why do you still use it? Just curious.
It’s too much of a hassle to move from it now, since I have alot on my plate and they don’t support any other GUIs (a classic vendor lock).

I have planned it for the second half of this year though.
