  • No, I'm saying that there isn't. You can use all those things on every platform, RCS would be the 6th program you need to install besides the other 5 you already have and it seems useless compared to the rest.

    Edit: platform as in android, windows, iOS etc

  • SMS can literally be read by anyone spinning up a fake mobile tower, there is no e2e encryption and probably a few other security concerns I don't even know, I'll use WhatsApp before I use SMS as secure communication.

    Edit: RCS fixes (some of?) this but at this point why not use something even better?

  • They don't need 5 programs, there are lots of messaging services that work across the major platforms that people use, I don't understand why we would want a new , "official" client made by google which locks out anyone they don't like (rooted devices, third parties) which doesn't even have the advantages of already existing options in terms of privacy, usability, and security.

    Also they'd need 6 programs, the 5 they had before and now RCS.

  • Instead of using systemd user services you can just use a normal systemd service and tell it to run the command as a specific user, put something like this in a file at /etc/systemd/system/

    <unit Name>

    .service

     
        
    [Unit]
    Description=Run service as user test
    After=network.target
    
    [Service]
    Type=simple
    User=test
    Group=test
    ExecStart=/opt/teamspoke
    
    [Install]
    WantedBy=default.target
    
      

    Then set it to start at boot

     
        
    systemctl enable <unit Name>.service
    
    
      

    And to start it now

     
        
    systemctl start <unit Name>.service
