I prefer a desktop client because it's more lightweight than a web browser, I can keep it running indefinitely, I don't have to worry about accidentaly closing it and not receiving notifications afterwards. I can also have a dedicated icon in the tray that shows the number of new messages.
> MyApp.users = MyApp.user || {};
Is this a typo, or intentional? If it is intentional, can someone explain the thought behind it?
Also, in some examples Medium (or the author's text editor) seems to have changed apostrophes and quotation marks, this makes the examples harder to try.
