Isn't this basically a messaging app? Search doesn't really do much if the handle/profile/id isn't associated with created/pinned content.

Telegram has the search feature. People don't use it much, except to find groups that share stickers or memes.

Yes. You'll be left with a messaging plus broadcasting app. I'm building it for people who waste a lot of time on twitter but can't leave the platform for various reasons. I thought removing the time consuming parts might help.
