  The same crackhead that thought it was a smart idea to build a business around giving iCloud credentials to a middle man.

    Are there plans for a desktop client?

    Anybody with a browser is going to be able to use Sunbird. The messages will synchronize. A big challenge has been synchronizing without them storing the data but we got it right. The web app will synchronize with the Sunbird app. Bottom line… Got a browser? You will be able to use Sunbird.

    They already can go to hell.

    The frantic fumbling to find whichever bloody tab on which bloody window is making the chime is really something I can do without. And when I DO ignore it, I’m somehow at fault.

      I mean they can mostly go to hell by stating

      The Sunbird servers do not store user data promoting a safe, secure, and private messaging environment. With end-to-end encrypted, confidential messaging, Sunbird is fully secure and completely private.

      And then literally storing unencrypted user data on their servers, doing the exact opposite of their claims.

      This whole company/product comes off as a shitty cash grab from idiot techbros with little knowledge of software. Apple is going to eat them alive once the litigation starts.

  I mean it’s Carl Pei, right? He’s always done stuff to get attention his products one way or another.

    All Pei did was put a Nothing skin on Sunbird. It was Sunbird that didn’t encrypt the comms.

    That said, Pei was so damn thirsty for marketing attention that Nothing obviously didn’t fully vet the security around Sunbird’s product.

      He should have choose a better product. Is Beeper better than Sunbird?

    Bro, Pei Wei had this BOGO deal. I would eat them almost everyday, except one visit got me more food than I could finish in a day.

    Those drunken noodles.

    Those firecracker chicken.

    Mmm.

    Haven’t been since they removed the deal, lol.
