@zbrown Anything is better than nothing (which is how it is now). Communicating how long something will take can be done by plain text, a progress bar animation, or progressive loading. Even if the splash screen says "Loading" in plain text, that communicates more of what's going on to the user than a static app icon or throbber does.

@agx @agx Splash screens aren't very useful as they don't communicate anything to the user other than "something happened". We realized this is bad UX in web design decades ago. If it can't be instant, tell the user how long it will take. #ux #uxdesign

@aspie4K @calculsoberic@mstdn.social What's wrong with Keepass? The reason I switched to that is because there are tons of client programs available for every platform imaginable.

@fsfi Why not use email? It has the advantage of working on practically everything with internet access and also a 4 billion person user base. It CAN be secured and can have a chat style interface.

@jaywink Email should probably be in the list of federated services there. It's been an "instant" messaging service for a while and has about 4 billion users.

@kura @p I was thinking a multi-user public hosting instance. I've seen hosting for other types of fediverse instances, but haven't seen Pixelfed yet and I think that's the one I might like.

@p Do you know anyplace that hosts Pixelfed instances?

@Qato I like spam musubi, but I don't know about this.

Let me try posting a video. Here are some of my clips of the Samsung Galaxy S21 series.

This is a good open-source app for seeing and blocking all the things an Android phone is connecting to. https://pocketnow.com/how-many-servers-is-your-phone-connecting-to

@grin @Doudouosm I think only 3 of those are decentralized, no? The Fediverse ones.
