• Trying to reach your phone

  Just started using Messages through a browser on my PC messages.google.com/. Unless I keep my phone (S22 Ultra) screen on, I get "Trying to reach your phone" on the PC browser. Source: 6 months ago

• Is there a place to suggest software you'd like to be on the AUR? If not, let it be here!

  I've moved on to Ferdium by the way via the ferdium-electron AUR package. I also use Tuta, Skiff, Google Messages and YouTube Music with it. Source: 6 months ago

• Google Messages Mess - Apple's iPhone Message app vs Web app

  Some messages show up on my phone, but not on messages.google.com ... Some messages show up on messages.google.com but not on my phone.

• A new onboarding experience on Mastodon

  The title undersells the change a bit in my opinion. By default, mastodon now encourages new users to sign-up on https://mastodon.social which has caused a bit of a kerfuffle in the fediverse. Personally, I'm largely ambivalent to the change; I understand the reasoning, and it's what https://element.io has been doing for https://matrix.org since the beginning.

• [For Hire] Computer Programming Tutor or Teacher (C, C++, and others, details inside)

  Please DM me if you are interested in hiring me or have any questions at all. We will work via Element (https://element.io) voice/screen share calls, so please make sure you have a mic available. I look forward to hearing from you. Source: about 1 year ago

  Your best bet is probably matrix, the most user friendly client iirc is element. Source: about 1 year ago
