I have even tried logging in using my work computer, which is connected to my work's VPN. I can't see the login section (but I can see old.lemmy.world's).
Yes, I tried it on several machines and browsers. And I just tried it on my work laptop on Edge, which has no extensions, I can't see the login section. But I can see the one from lemmy.world no problem (old.lemmy.world/login)
My take, be pragmatic. I still go to my city and career subreddit because that's where I get my city news and career advice. And I'm in Lemmy because it really does feel like the Reddit of 2008-2014 and I love it here.
Read my post about how reddit went from just 85,000 users in 2008 to 500 million active users in 2023: https://old.lemmy.ca/post/2780188. Reddit didn't grow overnight. It took 15 years to grow to where it is now.
This is largely a North American problem. More than 50% of phones are iPhone, and the de facto texting for iPhone users is iMessage. While WhatsApp is the default IM for most of the rest of the world, it's iMessage in North America.
Exactly. We have to remember the old saying of Hippocrates: prevention is better than cure. Preventing a disease will save the system an enormous amount of money because it will reduce the number of hospital admissions. Hospital admissions are the most expensive costs.
It's a bridge for notifications. Since Apple's APN notification servers require a persistent connection to work, meaning that the application must be running continuously to receive notifications, the Beeper servers push those notifications (messages) to your phone.
This means that the application does not need to be running continuously to receive messages.
