I finally have a void kitty myself and I amuse my friends by sending pictures that state there is a cat in this picture. He is so incredibly light absorbent it is insane.

I’m literally the only person I know who uses any of these platforms. A new messaging service out of those won’t ever be on their radar.

I don’t know what you’re referring to

Apple is winning the communications game and I’m afraid I’ll wind up switching once they go usb c. I’m sick and tired of the iMessage walled garden when messaging nearly everyone I know, and also tried of the hit or miss debacle of rcs. I will miss the customization freedom (currently using Niagara launcher and it’s super unique ux), but Android phones have deleted all of the other benefits that separated them from iPhones, like expandable storage, ir blasters, headphone jacks, etc. I hate to jump on the bandwagon, but I’m sick of waiting for this all to be worked out. Before anyone says to use signal or Whatsapp, etc, it just isn’t a standard here in the US. Folks will never switch off iMessage.

Our? Where? In the US? Certainly not in the US. By any measure. Math scores are the lowest they’ve been in decades, same with science. Nevermind all of the fascist 1984 book banning and burning nonsense happening in certain places. These kids are not smarter.
