I like it. Not sure the search entry in the list needs to always be on screen but it's fine.

Tablet sized screen when you want/need it, normal sized phone when you don't, in your pocket all the time.

I think you mean "tri fold".

This thing costs $2800...

That's not how it works. Other apps (ironically including Google's RCS implementation) use the Signal Protocol. Simply using it doesn't magically make your app interoperable with every other app that uses it. And Apple would be the last company to go out of their way to make it work.

Nobody here is against open standards or FOSS apps. I am actually lucky/privileged enough to be able to write open source code for a living.

You seem to not understand the reality of the situation and that use case other than yours exist.

Huh? No it wouldn't. If Apple implemented the Signal protocol they would still have to publish an iMessage app to the Play Store for Android users.

Call Google's messaging app proprietary all you want but at least their implementation of RCS is E2E encrypted.

RCS is the wrong one to use

For you. I have relatives with iPhones I don't talk to frequently but when we get together and somebody takes a group photo it's annoying. Being able to just text a decent resolution photo without people needing to download an app is a win.

I'll continue to use Signal with friends and family I talk to regularly.

This. They fucked up the one thing that made the original the best Foldable ever made IMO. Hopefully they get it right next year.

What a life you must have. Must be nice to be so blissful ignorant and naive that you never once consider that you are wrong, not the entire rest of the world.

Yes. And a "bifold wallet" has a single fold that bisects the wallet into two haves. A "trifold wallet" has two folds that divides the wallet into three equal parts.

This is how these English words are used. Look it up...

I realized this completely misses the point, but the problem is actually dust not water. All these foldables are IPX8, meaning they are highly water resistant but not rated for dust and debris.

I completely agree with your repairability point btw.

The number refers to the number of sections the fold(s) create, not the number of folds.

Example: Bifold and Trifold wallets.

Huh? Each hinge will be doing exactly the same thing as every other foldable for the last 5 years.

Why would it need to lock? It's no different than a normal foldable in that regard, the hinges are firm and hold in the position you put it.

the app itself (GUI) and the integration of those services are responsible of the size of the app.

That's < 100MB for me.

It's a drop in the bucket though. I'd be shocked if it was more than 1%. So it doesn't explain anything.

So its basically "telemetry"

There's just no way. Telemetry are just text logs and should never take more than a couple MB. They are also going to be deleted routinely and frequently after being sent to the server.

I'm going to be honest, I actually know a lot more than I can say on this matter. But believe me Gemini Nano is a multimodal LLM.

I spoke to Google engineers about this a few months ago:

I don't run GrapheneOS. Convenient you are all of the sudden too lazy to prove you are right or have a clue about what you are saying.

You are aware that those are often called LMMs, Large Multimodal Model. And one of the modes that makes it multi-modal is Language. All LMMs are or contain an LLM.
