A FOSS alternative is WhoBird, available on F-Droid and pretty good.
This is a silly debate you're both having. Money is not real, and a price is whatever a buyer is willing to pay. Emotions are best spent elsewhere.

Seems more likely the Lego would get crushed and the tortoise would be none the wiser.
These are thoughts that occur to me too when a safetyist progressive (for want of a better term other than "woke") suggests shutting down information to prevent people seeing the wrong ideas. But you must see that it is…
If those countries are in the EU, you have the right to use a bank based in another EU country. The traditional incumbents will likely demand an in-country residential address (in direct contradiction of EU law). Which…
"Universal" is a massive stretch. What seems more certain is that the many countries where your take is widely shared are less successful than the few countries where it is not.
Dynadot. Over a decade without issues.
Indeed. Personally I would never pay for any service whose name includes the word "cheap" (it's literally why I gave this one a wide berth despite all the breathless recommendations here and elsewhere). Cheapness should…

Indeed. That video made a impact on me too. Obviously people are trying to "debunk" it, but we can clearly see the challenge the chimp was set and how it aces it. Even gaming out scenarios of intense preparation (i.e.…

Oh. Misunderstanding. I thought I was replying to a comment about IRC.

At that's the point. People are not choosing to use anything, they're using what they have to in order to communicate with people.
Presumably the risk is mitigated somewhat with the Flatpak version (`org.telegram.desktop`)?
HDI is indeed a better metric than the various alternatives based on dollars. But still. The six US states that score less than 0.9 (i.e. Kentucky, Mississippi et al) are supposedly peers of EU countries like Portugal,…

You're both wrong. It only becomes a meteorite once embedded in the rock. Until then it's a meteor.
Obviously you're wading into hot water by even outlining this analysis. Personally I'm tempted to buy it (if it's true, it's true!) but recently I saw an interesting argument that softened me up a bit to the feminist…
