I just quit cold turkey and moved to lemmy fulltime. I miss some communities but whatev, its no biggie.

I’m sceptical. With all the added complexity of a foldable, the specs are probably gonna be below average to absymal. I’d love to be proven wrong tho.

What monopoly? M$ revenue + Nintendo revenue = Sony Gaming revenue

Activision waa such a piece of shit, I m actually very excited for this. They shitcanned Bobby too. It can only get better.

I used it too. I miss it, but i get why they removed it: it just kinda breaks the Signal user experience and trust model. This app lives and dies by the users trust their conversations will be private. By having an option to message someone in a completely unencrypted, easy to intercept mode like SMS it risks this trust for little gain (some power users like us liked it). By removing it, the app concentrates on what is expected from it and removes a big possibility for user error while fleshing out its marketing image even more. It makes perfect sense but its a tad annoying.

Lol Federation is the definition of scalable. Everyone serves their local users -> a miniscule amount of global traffic, everything but auth always stays local.

If you bought a Rolex instead, it would have doubled in value in the meantime.
