I have a heat pump, it heats the water in my radiators. That's the typical installation here in the UK.

It certainly doesn't offer the performance, and Android phones never have. If I look at the 6a, it offers marginally better performance than the iPhone X, and that came out in 2018.

and using your example an iPhone 12 Pro is much faster:

That's my point, it maybe a standard but for all intents and purposes it is just used by a single player.

So where is it used except Android? With any market share that makes it significant beyond android?

This is like saying Windows is the standard operating system.

My point still stands they are saying adopt our technology, but being disingenuous by calling it a standard.

Besides that how many people are using WhatsApp instead on both iPhone and Android.

This is pretty disingenuous I think. Other than Android who is using RCS?

Why can't I message between WhatsApp and an RCS client. Or any other chat technology, how about Google Chat to RCS, or Slack to RCS, or anything else.

Their examples for 'the modern standard adopted by most of the mobile world': Motorola, OnePlus, Google Pixel, Samsung, Snapdragon are all providers of Android phones, so clearly they would use the default Android messaging service.

I have a few folk (mostly family) who uses Apple messaging, everyone else seems to be on WhatsApp.

It's hard to imagine someone more famous than Charlie Chaplin.

Bitwarden for me. I've been using 1Password from around 2013 I think. I didn't buy into their subscription model so they've been gouging me with difficulties and cost in buying upgrades for a few years.

Apparently they have 500 members of staff these days, and millions and millions of investor dollars. Apart from maintaining browser extensions, for my own personal use I've not noticed a single interesting feature in recent years.

I moved to Bitwarden when the electron thing was announced, haven't paid any subscription yet and seem to have all the features I used before in 1Password. Bitwarden is very much recommended and I wouldn't recommend 1Password to anyone these days.
