Actually, you can scan a qr code and use on both
But wouldn't that mean if someone writes to your desktop profile you can't respond on mobile and vice versa? And you would have to be added by everyone else twice too?
Yes.
You have to switch between devices.
When this becomes seamless, it'll be a more competitive app.

You just never use a desktop profile. You have an account on mobile, and every time you go desktop you sign in with the app and qr code so you're always using the same db on each machine.
My desktop app has zero profiles and no db; I only sign in with my mobile.
