Oh, I agree. I don’t think it’s a particularly useful reference page – more of a biased agglomeration on a substrate of preconceived opinion, but the initial pile-on of downvotes without comments felt a bit like the usual Mozilla-fanaticism.

I tend to upvote posts not because I agree with them, but because I’m interested in people’s responses to the ideas within them.

So many downvotes…

I’m only about 10% in (and just skimming), and it’s a rant but it’s coherent and well-reasoned.

Starts off as a dive into Mozilla’s rank hypocrisy and doublespeak around privacy.

What are your tips on glasses? I choose standard uncoated lenses nowdays after finding that anti-reflective/anti-scratch coatings often scratched easily or had an optically-rippled surface, but maybe things have improved?

If that’s the main problem then that’s easy to solve! Simply use a free public xmpp server.

I mention the self- and paid-hosting options because businesses tend to like having a sevice agreement backed by a contract, and may have additional specialised requirements not provided by free services (xmpp or otherwise).

XMPP. A business can self-host, there are public servers, or there are many businesses which offer customised xmpp hosting as a service.

I can be federated with other xmpp servers or be a locked-down work-only service, or federate with chosen other servers (such as a client company’s xmpp servers).

An excellent discrete maths textbook for those missing the inclusion of the subject in the course: Discrete Mathematics - An Open Introduction, 3rd edition by Oscar Levin

Some 4G phones don’t support 4G calling correctly or with all networks.

Check whether your phone actually uses 4G (VoLTE) for calls – to sort-of test this, make a call while connected to mobile data and note whether the signal meter’s 4G indication drops to 3G(H+/HSPA) or something during the call.

A more insidious version of this issue is that some phones do VoLTE just fine, but only use 3G for 000 calls.

Some phones only support VoLTE with some networks. There’s a chance that an appropriate firmware upgrade could add support for some network/device combos.
