Phone Link is Microsoft's late and closed source alternative to KDE Connect. It requires you sign in to a Microsoft Account for it to work.

This means all the transactions between your phone and your PC are monitored and sucked up by Microsoft.

refalo ,

so exactly like kde connect then

refalo ,

when it works. but it's so incredibly buggy, especially the desktop apps, and double especially the sms desktop app. holy shite is it terrible, and trying to get support is like trying to report a problem to google

refalo ,

it is absolutely useless on all platforms

refalo ,

I have had nothing but problems with kde connect for years

refalo ,

besides many banks requiring SMS 2FA still, I usually only talk with non-app-using people over e2ee RCS

Yesterday I heard a conspiracy theory that the reason lead was added to gasoline was to keep the Pouge carburetor from becoming viable because it allegedly used pre-heated gas vapor to achieve 100-200mpg efficiency, but the lead clogged it up instead.

Here's my own counter-conspiracy on that... if everything we read says that it didn't actually work, why did Breen Motor Company claim it worked when THEY tried it? And why did Pouge suddenly disappear?
