This whole article felt like a poor sales pitch.
What wavelength offers:
- Privacy focused (majority of users do not care about this, all modern chat apps have e2ee already)
- Natively runs on Apple devices (without Android/Windows version, good luck getting a large user base, especially with 2 developers)
- An AI chatbot (discord/slack already have this?)
- A groups -> threads -> messages layout. Like they mentioned, the same as slack but less corporate. Seems like a good idea since Slack is pretty awful for personal use.
The article could've done less without the author patting themselves on the back about how amazing their opinions offered were.
