   If only there was a way to end the common use of silos for communication. I stopped it for me, but people are like "Message me on Insta". I can't.

     @randulo this to me is rather useless and even dangerous in some ways so I avoid them.

     @randulo for a long time I could not even effectively see or use my phone at all.

     @gnutelephony Agreed. Most people who ask to connect on FB or IG aren't really important contacts. The next alternative is SMS, which everyone has, but that's not great either. I don't mind it for non-critical personal stuff, though.

     @randulo small, dark, and dead battery, it hid out on a dark desk for a month or so at one point. Even charged, the text was way too small to read anything. And they call this a smart phone. Seemed as dumb as a rock. How do you even try to setup any accessibility option if you can't even see what your doing ;).

     @randulo #linphone used to be my favorite client. It turns out they switched from Qt widgets to Qt qml. This means that the color scheme does not match and can no longer be changed with the desktop theme settings. They use light text on an orange background, too.
