a friends list is not part of that. the backend, core, and server infrastructure however is, and that's all up and running! looks like we have a minimum viable product on our hands in spite of you trying to move the goalposts
I'd suggest to just let development continue instead of trying in vain to drag it down into the muck because of some conclusion you've already drawn in your head
