Nice project! I like the simplicity and near zero configuration that is needed to get started.

Do you store the submitted data anywhere? And is there any way to peek at the source code?

Guess not, possibly Firebase or something 'cause Glitch doesn't give you that option yet. Also, this is an easy-doable bot, stick some Express to receive payloads on /c/your-chat-id and some Telegraf to send the messages to your-chat-id perhaps.

The source code is on Glitch, I guess it's open. But it is literally 30 lines of code.

If it gets interested users I'll implement safer endpoints, anti-spam and other things like storing the submissions.

There's nothing wrong with few lines of code :) and I think it's nice that no data is stored since you can just go through your chat history.
