Is there currently no way to write or answer direct messages?

You already got an answer from the top dev, but adding in a chat app style UI for DMs is on my personal to-do list as a contributor.

I don't have time work on Thunder atm, but it's something I absolutely will get to eventually if no-one else beats me to it.

I ran across a Flutter package that provides a cool chat style widget which inspired me to start working on this. But then I discovered that there's no API call to retrieve your sent messages. So we could display all the incoming messages from each user like chats, but not sent ones (unless we remembered the ones we sent in Thunder, but that wouldn't be everything).

Really? Don't messages sent by you come back in a list together with any received ones?

The only issue in need of solving afaik was that you can't get your exchange with a given user, just all of them in a big list.

Oh wow, you're right! Somehow I totally missed that. Even Thunder displays sent messages.

So you're right. You could get all incoming messages from a specific user by passing creator_id but you just couldn't get all the message you sent to a specific person without getting everything and filtering them.
