…y in the middle" Drop "Group chat you already know" — it read as slick ad copy and presumes what the reader knows. Lead the headline with the differentiator instead; the Signal/WhatsApp familiarity is still carried by the subhead right below it. Also removes the now-unused .rv-h1-2 CSS rule.

Problem
The hero H1 "Group chat you already know. / Without the company in the middle." leads with a familiarity claim that reads as slick, 1960s-ad-style marketing and presumes what the reader already knows.
Approach
Lead the headline with the differentiator: "Group chat without the company in the middle." (the last phrase in brand blue). The Signal/WhatsApp familiarity that "you already know" was reaching for is still carried by the subhead directly below ("River feels familiar, like Signal or WhatsApp…"), so the orientation is preserved, just moved a line down. Also removes the now-unused
.rv-h1-2CSS rule.Testing
Hugo build clean; verified the new H1 renders (desktop + iPhone) with correct dark/blue split, and the old copy and dead class are gone. Copy-only change to one template + one dead CSS rule; no logic.
Wording chosen by Ian.
