Well...all in all, imo there should go people qualified to eo the job, not "black, " lgbt" "woman" "white" "hetero" "homo" etc....Just qualified people, no biasing to anyone, just let scientists do the s ience, not politics...
Arch linux? Is it you?
True...BT codecs these days are almost hi-res compatible, why to even bother when actually audiophiles use external DAC.
Fr, same experience. It surprises me though, that gnome has 2x more funding...
Good summary, I can't stand Zorin's GNOME on my laptop though (I used to use KDE on my main PC). Come on, 5 clicks to connect with BT headphones every time? No auto-connecting? I have to install extensions anyway? Meh that's not for me...I can't change date to ISO format on my laptop, because I need extension for this too. Another extension for auto-connecting with VPN, and another app as a killswitch. Just you need to find an app/extension/tweak if you want to do anything more advanced than most basic functionality, it annoys me af. And I really like Zorin, its so noob-friendly (as I wanted it to be), but at the same time many functionalities don't work just because of "simplicity".
I use it on my daily basis. Never disappointed me in about 2 years now. So yeah, great app. (Sometimes I use waze too to avoid you know :)
The problem is Signal supports up to 1000 people group chat, so it's better to find something different
When telegram team is mainly focusing on UX instead of privacy and security, it is not wierd for me. They don't have to bother about encryption, about matrix protocol which federates all the self-hosted servers, about self-hosting in itself etc. I'm pretty sure element's UX is a side-quest compared to all those other things under the curtain. Summing it up, Element X is in fact a huge upgrade, making it closer in UX to other mainstream apps like those i mentioned above, not Telegram, because it is not even a messenger, its just a social media app that immitates "private and secure" messenger, but in reality it is just twitter DM.
Telegram isn't really an alternative, they don't even use encryption by default, so it should be faster. Better to compare real alternatives: Signal, Whatsapp, Simplex etc.
Um...just yesterday Ive seen JBL tour pro 3 (sth like that).
