Just out of curiosity, how much people still use SMS? I can't remember last time I sent SMS.

Here in Finland we use mainly Whatsapp, FB Messenger, Telegram or Signal for messaging. Almost no one I know has sent SMS in the last 10 years.

And make fine based on income, not just static sum. Works well in Finland.

So do you have a work phone number?

I don't have work number currently. And I very rarely call with my phone to coworkers.

when you could just organize your work applications in a single area

You could do that, but you would miss some of the features. Ex. I use same browser on normal and work profile, but I have two icons (one for work, one for normal) to open browser. When I'm on my work profile, I'm logged in with my work Google account and it doesn't interfere with my normal profile browser. Same thing for Gmail, calendar, contacts, Google docs/sheets etc. And if I ever want to get rid of works stuff on my phone, I just delete work profile.

And for security reason when normal profile apps cannot interfere with work profile apps in any way. Ex. I can have one password manager on my work profile and another on normal profile and they cannot share information in any way and I can keep my work and private passwords separate.

And like I previously said, this works for entertainment use also, as I can have two instances of same app with different login information (like pokemon go)

I personally got couple use cases.

Work profile: I can split my works stuff and personal very easily (and for security as personal apps cannot see or work with work stuff usually).

This also helps if you want to get same app installed multiple times. Ex. I could install pokemon go and use two profiles same time with split screen.

"true" secondary profile: like in desktop OS where you can create multiple profiles, this will "boot" phone to new profile and it has own partition and apps. Cannot interact with other "true" profiles.

I use that with my child if I hand phone to her. She cannot get to my stuff (not even images or other data) and only has her stuff available.

What happens if user spends over 3 minutes to write the post after uploading image?

Would user create a post with broken image link? or would there be some kind of "call home" API call on create post page so image wouldn't be removed? (which has risk that API call could be replicated by a bot)

https://www.messenger.com/ also works (requires to be running as desktop version). Still not ideal but works.

It doesn't accept banners / popups. When that doesn't know how to handle things, it just leave it to user to handle.

Most of the time it just works as intended.

IIRC, that doesn't block cookies, it just blocks cookie warnings.

I personally use Consent-O-Matic nowdays.

I don't care about cookies sometimes broke website.

Never had that issue with Consent-O-Matic which automatically rejects all cookies while still making site usable.

At least with firefox beta, you can create your own collection of extensions and use those. That's what I do and I can install any extension.

Bonus negative points for games that only check DLC after that button press

Don't forget games that have you manually press button to dismiss and unlocked DLC.

It's very fun with games that you buy after few years and have hundred DLC (ex. fighting games) 😅

Usually takes few minutes of just button pressing to dismiss all new dlcs
