When you send a post via messenger why is the first option the person who made the post. Why would i send them the post. Who designed that

I checked my messenger tab for the first time in eight months and without fail every 15 minutes someone accidentally sends me my own posts because the interface is so poorly thought out

Tumblr implimented it as an alternative to replies in between when they removed replies and when they added them back in again. I think they thought that having the “send message ” option would cause people to stop demnading replies back. That didn’t work and people compared it to calling someone to tell them that you sent them a letter vs. sending a text.
