It's used by a lot by organisations who want an alternative to Slack/Teams. Have a look at the client list for Element, arguably the biggest Matrix client/platform - https://element.io/

And as someone else mentioned there's also a huge influx of IRC folks especially in the last year.

I don't use it, but I imagine it sends mountains of telemetry and browsing data back to Redmond.

I use Inoreader, works quite well for reddit.

I'm only a few hours in, but aside from the usual weird NPC behaviour this engine is known for I haven't encountered any actual bugs so far.

Good to know 👍

It's amazing how many people aren't getting this joke.

A helicopter is very obvious when it's nearby, a drone is far less so. One could be watching you right now and you probably wouldn't know unless you were looking for it.

It's true, just yesterday I saw a rogue whopper starting a forest fire

What does that have to do with a phone that's only sold in Europe?

[–] synicalx1@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

What argument? It's a fact that I can't purchase this phone, nor can most people on the planet.

Sounda great, but like all previous Fairphones there's no reason for the vast majority of the people on Earth to be interested in this because it's only available in Europe.

Even if I do import it here in AU; I don't get a real warranty, I pay huge important taxes (or a markup to a reseller), and I have to go through just as much trouble for any replacement parts I may need.
