I didn't get it! Wonder if it's because I'm running GrapheneOS on my Pixel. I do have emergency alerts enabled, but ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Cheers. I've got it set up as an autocorrect when I type shrugguy, doesn't account for markdown eccentricities though.

I am too but I got it. Seems mixed whether people do get it or not, despite their setup. I didn't on the ones before I think and I was running regular Android those times

I'll blame Vodafone then

Might want to report that to somebody. Emergency alerts are an important function

[-] afb@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah, I'm trying to work out who I should be reporting it to. I'll try Vodafone first, with any luck it'll be something they can sort out on their end.

Other people with GrapheneOS got the alert, it seems.
