Sorry it's been a while 😅 I hope you enjoy, I've certainly dropped the quality a couple notches. Lately I've been focused on Expo for web so my time was pretty limited 😫 But it's great to be back!! 😁😄 I noticed while uploading that my example app was pretty much the same as the Gifted Chat example so ... sorry for my lack of creativity ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

➜ Which "joke" was the most cringe
➜ Are you ready for non-stop Expo web updates when v33 comes out?
➜ Why do you keep coming back
