I feel like for internal government communications you might not want it to be open source.

Doesnt mean everyone else should want to use it.

It’s not so much laziness as the reason you’ve given - everyone else is on WhatsApp. Why would I move to a new messaging app when I literally can’t message the people I want to message on it cause they don’t have it.

I gamed on PC for many years and basically only moved to a console when I had kids a few a years back.

Both have benefits. For me, I like the not being distracted by other stuff on the console. Like if I sit down to game, on PC I’d often just end up on YouTube, twitch, check reddit, emails, whatever. I like that my console I just use for gaming.

I still play on my PC from time to time and there’s obviously games that are only on PC, but my preference is console for the current phase of life and that’s fine for me.

I can also buy and sell console games 2nd hand though which isn’t possible on PC anymore.

That said, PC piracy probably wins overall if you’re looking the absolute cheapest option. But that’s kind of a different set of arguments.

As someone that used to love OnePlus, what’s the more recent equivalent?

I felt like around the 3 or so, I could get a flagship-ish phone for a reasonable price. Is there anything like that now?

I go on reddit for the TeachingUK sub and for the rugbyunion sub.

If those communities existed here in any meaningful way then I’d be done with reddit properly at this point.

I don’t think the solution to that problem though is having multiple, smaller, unconnected grids.

I think it’s to just have a more resilient grid system that doesn’t have any areas that are a single point of a failure
