About a year ago, I shared a small project here: an open-source SMS gateway that lets you send/receive texts using any android phone.

Today, it just passed 10,000 users

Some fun stats:

• ~5 million SMS sent & received so far
• Users across 90+ countries
• 2k+ github stars and counting

I built this because I wanted a cost-effective alternative to twillio or other sms APIs. Turns out a lot of people here wanted the same thing.
