currently the best platform to receive calls on a graphene phone with zero google services
It costs a few bucks more per month than services such as voip.ms, but it is simple and stable. I wasted a lot of time aligning different VOIP clients with voip.ms which I never need to do with jmp.chat. If you are novice, go with jmp.chat to spare some headaches.
Ive used it for about 6 months. Migrated my old number to it, due to too much spam. Also set up a new number on it which I use to sign up for new services. Haven't gotten spam on my main # since.
A handful of services do block VOIP number sign ups, which is unfortunate.
I tried it, I wanna say for a month. But I seem to recall some services that used a phone number for 2FA wouldn't accept the number. I suspect likely because the area code block was associated with VoIP, or something similar. So I didn't bother keeping it.
EDIT: my compromise was to use an app to block all callers not on my contact list, or whose number I hadn't called first. I know that doesn't help with anonymity, but I had to keep my expectations realistic
