Because I've been saying for over 2 years that THIS blockchain should have some sort of private messaging feature. Partiko's feature is fine... just not what I figured 2 years would bring us. It was more of a poke at FTG for fun. He needs cheering up... we all need cheering up.

We have private messaging in the form of memo. Each message is 0.001 STEEM which you get back when the other end answers you.

The problem is that no good interface has been built on top of this.

Partiko messaging is not bad, it is just centralized on the Partiko server.

HOLY SHIT! THAT'S WHAT I F*@&ING MEANT!
NOW thank you and MOVE ON!

Is there any incentive what-so-ever for some developer to write an interface for it?

I don't think private messages should be on a blockchain. It certainly could be done technically. It just seems like a design decision rather than an oversight.

Decentralized messaging is interesting.
