Hi Omar, this was totally unexpected but glad you did! I have been using Telescope in the last weeks, it has been really fun, but it has been amazing the passion and the dedication you infuse in it! Please keep going like you have been doing so far, I look forward to see all the new features and ideas you have for this amazing client! Thanks for all!
