There benefit would be exactly what this top comment is about. For all those people in your contacts who don't use signal, you could still use signal to message them, it would just be an SMS message. It would therefore also become more enticing for people to switch from their stock SMS app to signal, because it would make no difference in terms of who you can send SMS messages to. It would allow for the signal user base to grow, solving the issue of "no one uses signal"
I use ms teams for work, and I agree, it's been a game changer in terms of productivity. But I'll still call someone in teams of I know they're at there computer. Camera on an all. It's about being personal. Building rapport with colleagues and other professionals aids tremendously with productivity and also job satisfaction.
Sometimes it's better to not put things in writing. I hear what your saying, but some sensitive topics require a personal connection to truely discuss, with tone of voice to help
For the workplace, calls are king. If you're a professional, calling another professional, it's the easiest and fastest way to exchange information back and forth. Long email chains that take several days to reach their conclusion are inefficient. If you need something done, in the work/business arena, just call. Younger generations are entering the workforce for first time and are scared to make or answer calls. It's embarrassing.
Sure, outside of work, keep calls to a bare minimum. Family usually text first to arrange a phone call.
People have no back bone anymore. Oh no, I'm getting telemarketing calls... Just hang up.
No, I don't encrypt. I am a grown ass man and I rarely take my laptop out of my home. I don't have any sensitive data on my various machines. I do use secure and encrypted cloud services to store things that I consider a security risk. Everything else is useless to a potential intruder.
I rate disroot as a good free alternative. Personally I use FastMail. It's paid, but you know how the saying goes, "if the service is free the you're the product".
There is no way Trump wrote that tweet. It is full of punctuation and clearly gets a point across. It was clearly written by someone else. Nevertheless, time to delete protonmail.
The fact that this is legal in the US is just another reason why US politics is completely fucked. The people didn't just elect the person, they elected the party. If she no longer wants to be a Democrat then she should resign. Here in Australia, that's what you do. You want to join the other party? you resign an then you need to be re-elected for the party your represent. It's fucking insane to be able to just go, nup, I'm switching sides.
If that's allowed, why don't don't smart, well spoken Dems campaign as Republicans to get the Maga votes then switch to Democrat after being elected?
The solution will be for have developers to fully support Linux. I'd date to say they the majority of people still using windows are doing so because they're gamers. While Linux has done what it can to support gaming, it's now up to the game Devs to build games that run on Linux
