They are an ancient technology, it was needed before we had phones connected to internet, but now they are a relic. And have been for at least a decade.
They are good at giving us fun by making americans fight each other about the color of their bubbles.
And no, RCS is not the solution.
It alone will generate 14% of what the entire nation needs for at least 60 years and probably much more time.
How many times you have to replace the (very green?) batteries needed to store power for an entire nation in 60 years? And the solar plants and others?They started it, they completed it and now suddenly 14% of their energy is truly carbon free. For probably a century.
And once you build one, building another one won’t take so much time.
Who still uses SMS ???
In what universe filling the world of solar panels and huge huge huge batteries is cheaper or quicker or less polluting?
To me it seems when nuclear power price is considered it is always the highest that can be found while for renewables weirdly it does not consider a lot of factors.

05·11 months agoWith an app it is just me, the app and whatever internet connection I have.
With SMS&co instead I have to deal with a system outside that, managed by the phone company and whatever.
Also apps are constantly updated, RCS standard will just become SMS2.Even iPhone users use an app in USA, it is only USA android users that for some random reasons are still stuck to SMS.
Here I just open telegram or whatsapp and message with anyone, no matter the phone. Or discord, or Matrix…
Don’t worry about Europe, we don’t use SMS and we also do not want RCS.
We are perfectly fine using apps like Telegram/whatsapp/Signal.The whole “green/blue bubbles” thing is USA only, keep it USA only please, thank you.
If somehow you are in a place with no better signal than 2G, you cannot make calls/send SMS if you cannot join 2G cells.
But it is very rare to end up in such a situation these days.
92·1 year agoIf you are using torrent then yeah, each file will be checked and the bad parts redownloaded.
Missing or corrupted does not matter.
Each torrent divides its content in a lot of small parts. Correct one are kept, anything else redownloaded. Simple and effective.

Servers are expensive, either someone pays, or the instance closes.
As of now very few people are on the fediverse, so it’s cheap.
But if we expect hundreds of millions of people to use it… expenses will skyrocket.
“It’s wild how little of what’s happening is being chronicled,”
Sorry Putin, Ukraine will not tell you its military plans!
That’s the problem: it does not make money.
The fediverse mean that the different instances can federate, but every instance after all still has its server and its expenses just like every web service since… always. Forums, chats, socials…
So far donations or pro bono from whoever is managing an instance, but unluckily this is not sustainable if user number skyrocket.
A way would be to somehow make everything p2p but I don’t even know if it’s possible for what is needed.
