I like the XMTP folks and their mission, but right now who do you want to talk to that is active on XMTP? If we spent time ripping out DCs and integrating XMTP right now, we'd have: - Weaker encryption - More systemic complexity for clients - No material improvement for our users

Where are you still getting spam? All major clients have implemented consent and if you’re still getting spam I’d love to help and know about it
