>asks me to update for the 3rd time within 1 week
>go see the changelog notes and its just "We sped up the performance of scrolling in long chats. If you are in a big gardening group, now bloom scrolling is also vroom scrolling." For all previous 45 releases
What the fuck is going on? Are they exclusively hiring jeetcoders too now? Why arent they saying what theyre really going in the changelog

call reliability is still dogshit, this is insane as it has been a solved issue for decades at this point...

I really dont like when applications need an update almost every single day, feels like im back in 2008 when itunes would bother me with a new update every single day. The last recent time another app did this was shazam. Shazam alllllways has an update, basically everyday and when you click the changelog its just "big fixes and improvements" ive never once encountered a bug on multiple devices ive owned nor noticed anything being improved. I deleted it just because of how often it got updated

they are/were busy with the big quantum secure crypto upgrade

Why using Signal, which asks for a phone number, instead of any XMPP app? Not only you can message users using a different app or server (just like that futuristic and esoteric technology called 'email') but you could even roll your own server quite easily.

No one i know uses xmpp. If i install it id just be messaging myself. I use signal cuz its supposedly more secure and its how i send vids and pics to my friends cuz files are too large for sms/mms. Like if i send a video more than 5 seconds long it gets compressed into dogshit on mms or just fails to send

XMPP does not use pqc, and nobody uses it.

You will like it or you will rope

theyre going the way of telegram in search of monetisation

Im just gonna turn off the update notification and try to remember to update once a month. I am a techlet so idk whats going on or why an app would need to be updated 3 times a week. In my techlet non-developer opinion, an application thats made well shouldnt need such frequent updates. I have apps that run fine for months that dont need updating, and when they do come out with an update they list all the things they did in the changelog. 45+ releases and not a single detail about it in the changelog? What the fuck is that, am i missing something here?
>>
>>106932782
Their release notes have been faggy for a long time. Unserious project.
>>
>>106933781
A few years ago itd only get updated like once a month. Now its like 15 times a month, if this keeps it itll probably get updated daily or twice a day

You can configure obtanium to check for updates only every week. Same for fdroid.
