Could you build this?
Partial The Android UI and plugin scaffolding are vibe-codeable, but a real messaging client needs a delivery backend and protocol handling that are harder to build.
What it would actually take: A working client needs Android development with a messaging transport such as XMPP, Matrix, or a custom protocol, plus push notifications and encryption. Reliable delivery at scale also requires server infrastructure, which is the hard part. Release management and media handling are standard once the core transport exists.
