I told it to fuck off
Good, looks like you're perfectly sober
HW just died
Poor hardware
healthy salad time
mmm calories
nah calories only came after the picture was taken in form of ceasar sauce
Google is going to shut down hangouts
what should I use instead?
own XMPP server is too much effort on the long run
No one used it anyway
I am using it all the time
I have more people using hangouts in my circle than whatsapp
what
I thought they shut it down when it stopped coming preinstalled on Android
So, like android 6
nah discord is only for things not related to my real identity
with a few exception of people that I met on /g/ anyway
There's a reason they all last only months
riot ? spectrum(spectrum.chat)? matrix protocol in general, mattermost ? sslack ?
what else there is these days
isn't matrix slow af?
no ?
it's ok
the whole protocol seems gimped af to me
they wanted to make a bridge system and ended up putting an own messaging protocol layer on top for business reasons
also they are reports that hangouts is going away
Not actual announcement
then there is Zulip always what is quite decent and open source
I just realized that ICQ still exists
wtf
it uses mattermost as core
zulip might be too nerdy for many tho
I use Discord and FB Messenger/Telegram among my friends so I don't really have this problem
FBM is real botnet but the Lite mobile app is quite good and the social features are a major plus
You can plan events and check who's coming, send updates, etc
tfw almost all communities im part of are in discord
and most of important friends too
