Cool, that means home prices outside of major metros are going to start dropping right?

All fair complaints. I've managed to switch over all of my contacts to Signal (that I care to talk to, at least).
My biggest gripe is no back up support on iOS, meaning that if I lose my phone I lose everything. People have tried hand waving it away as a privacy feature, but I think backing up messages is a bare minimum for a messaging app - especially with the released of Advanced Data Protection for iCloud.
At that point, you might as well give up the rescue, call everyone back and seal the poor soul inside. 😖
Neat
Polyphia is a pretty incredible instrumental band.
You’ve made your case and stood your ground, and until it’s an official policy and nothing more than “guidance” you’ll probably be ok, honestly.
A few months back I was offered a promotion and a fancy new job title, with the caveat that I would need to move to another country. I countered with more or less the same argument as you, “I’ve been doing this from home for years and everyone I work with is remote anyways; I’m not moving” and was met with a “hmm…fair enough”.
I’m in the same boat. The recommendations don’t bother me too much, except when it recommends me videos I’ve seen in the recent or distant past. Also, when I watch one video from someone, then come to find out they’re part of some right wing culture and end up getting recommended the right wing rabbit hole videos for a few weeks.
Can you expand on what you’re looking for exactly? Most consumer routers will let you customize the subnet range (192.168..).
I don’t have anything to add, but +1.
A few useful web apps I’ve found are duolingo and Uber, which have native notifications on iOS without needing to install an app.
Signal is a great alternative to WhatsApp. Images sent aren't going to be full quality and will go through some compression of course, but the final sent picture is still going to be leaps and bounds over the garbage that WhatsApp sends. When going through old pictures on my camera roll, I can instantly tell what was sent/saved over WhatsApp compared to Signal due to just how pixelated it gets.
