The problem is that for the small percentage of texts that you only need to write "yo", there is a incomparably larger percentage that may need more than that. The Yo app removes functionality that native texting (or any number of WhatsApps and Facebook Messengers) already provide. Realistically it's like any other contact application: if you know people who use it you might use it, but I don't know anyone who uses it and I don't use it.

The same Democracy that had Africans in chains on plantations. When the future looks back what side will Brendan Eich be on?

> many users have hundreds of archives adding up to several terabytes, but pay less than $10/month.

$0.25 / GB-month x 1000gb = $250 / 1TB-month

What? Just as Eich had a right to dislike homosexuals, everyone in the world has a right to dislike bigots. Unfortunately for bigots, it's a lot harder to defend that position.
