  • I’ve been using Signal (the apk downloaded from the site, not the play store one) for a long time, and I’ve never faced a delay when sending or receiving messages until the last few days. My dad started complaining that he hasn’t received any of my texts, and he is not able to send images to me either.

    In this case, he just had to update the app.

    But people face this issue when their phone itself decide to doze off Signal. If you are facing the issue, you might as well disablle battery optimizations, install APK directly (or build one yourself), or change your ROM.



  • Depends on where you are and the anime you want to watch.
    I tried it once, but its region blocking prevents me from watching a good chunk of anime they have, this is the sole reason for piracy sites to exist. Not because people want to watch it for free, but they are not able to watch it due to restrictions.

    Now I just go to twist.moe or 4Anime to watch the shows, they have fewer ads and using a content/ad blocker doe not kick you out.

    If you want to help the industry just donate to them or buy a disk.

    Edit: I’m not sure about their DRM on GNU/Linux systems, I used CR long ago and DRM tends to update a lot.

    Is it really open-source? I don’t see any links on their website pointing to one.
    AniList is more modern But I don’t use it anymore as it ask me to solve Google’s reCAPTCHA when logging in.
    I currently use Kitsu; It’s more open source than both, and I am looking for other better alternatives because it gets buggy when my uBlock Origin blocks the trackers.
