as usual, devs are lost in implementing ludicrously complex scenarios for threat models that touch but a percentile of users, instead of implementing functionality that's normal everywhere else.

Where’s all of my older media?

As noted above, we can only sync media sent/received in the last 45 days.

are you for real? I mean, come on! coulda saved yourself the blog post. also, the two device maximum is still in effect? the electron crap posing as an app, that's it, that's the extent of your dev team's capabilities?

as usual, users are lost in complaining about a privacy-centered application prioritizing on privacy-centered solutions, instead of using the hundreds of other already insecure applications that are normal everywhere else.

people really will complain about anything. It's like progress means nothing, unless a fully working solution is available day 1, it's completely worthless. bff
