I think it's actually the other way around. BECAUSE phone numbers are linked to our accounts and identities, it makes us vulnerable to SIM swapping. They should only be used for calling and texting people, nothing more. But nowadays we need to link our personal details to them, our accounts, which introduces this vulnerability because then it creates this incentive for an attack

Also not a fan of Session missing FS. So I replaced it with SimpleX, but it's quite a dead community. The app also feels like something beta, but I have high hopes for it

It's too bad that it's so fragmented nowadays.

I've always liked morrocan pancakes, which are also a layered type of food, so decided to make them myself one day. So much much work for something that doesn't taste at least half as good as the ones from the bakery... Never again I told myself!

Innovation my ass. Their UI has been as a disaster as ever. Major reason why I stopped paying for their crappy service years ago

Lokinet is a modern alternative to both

Not killing, but degrades in performance because batteries have a limited amount of charge cycles. The more intensive you use your phone, the faster the battery degrades

Another vote for fairphone here, but for reasons others failed to mention: replaceable battery, so even after 2 years, it can feel like new and keep most of its value (to resell if wanted); 5 years of updates + warranty; support for after market roms. Then there's also the fair ethics part of it
