In my recent experience ringing businesses & organisations in the US these days, *no one* picks up their phone. It all goes to answerphone. I seldom get call backs (suspect most USians can't work out international calling). Left wondering why people bother having phones there.
@va2lam@lightweight One thing I like about my Librem5 is the Anti-Spam app; I have it set so non-contacts are on silent ring, and I just let them go to voicemail. I never saw such an app on Android, but maybe it exists.
