Echoing Ton,

Wow this is so exciting!

For the controls team to suggest they have “multiple options” to re-establish comms on a satellite launched in the 70s that is appx. 133AU from earth is truly astounding.

And of those options that a “shout” worked is so neat.

Makes me giddy to think about satellites launched recently and in the near future and how well they may fair in comparison.

I think the point of this discussion is to showcase the hypocrisy by example.

So, you’ve hit the nail on the head.

You’re correct I should have better worded my point: Signal used to be a single app that someone could install that could handle sending out their regular unencrypted SMS messages and Signal encrypted messages.

Signal also did exactly what you’ve described - auto-enabled encryption when it detected another signal user by phone number.

The net result was more people using encrypted messaging.

Yeah but I’m still mad about their decision to drop SMS/MMS.

Wonderful app, great handling of signal to signal messaging, but it really took away my ability to sell end to encryption to friends and family.

Dr Goodenough started his career at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he worked for 24 years and helped develop random-access memory for the computer.

Sounds like your typical entry-level job if you ask me.

Easy enough to just drop a down vote on the discussion, right?

The fact that everything is just “working” feels great!

Apps like Jerboa have made it so seemless to transition from deaddit.

Looking forward to the upcoming features that make the communities easier to join for the layperson.

Cheers!

Would this work on mobile as well? Does it require clicking into a thread to consider it viewed?
