Hey #HiveMind / #AskFedi,

Following up to an earlier question, can anyone tell me if they've gotten visual voicemail reliably working on any #FOSS #Android dialer program (or dedicated FOSS vVM program, if such a thing exists)?

It doesn't have to be your OS'es stock dialer, but it has to be a FOSS one. Not "Google Dialer" or "${cellular_carrier} Visual Voicemail."

It would work like 10% of the time when I was with AT&T, but now not at all with Mint Mobile (T-Mobile #MVNO).

Maybe I should make it into a #Poll to get more interest ;)

Yes, I've gotten vVM to work with FOSS Android
No, I could never get it to work reliably
I don't use FOSS Android (stock Android or iOS)
Poll ends at .

It's really annoying because I'd really like to re-enable the desktop-wide VPN, but I can't until I get this sorted. I use Signal as my main messenger, so I can't suddenly not be able to send/receive messages.

Oh, and I think sometimes the incoming messages _do_ come in (though delayed).

Any thoughts would be appreciated!

CS folks: I have a bit of extra professional development funds and am looking to buy some good books.

What are some of your all-time favorite books related to CS, programming, and so on? (For me, I might mention "On Lisp", and "Algorithms to Live By")

I'm especially interested in books on CS and philosophy, or CS and art. (Those should "keep" longer than, say, your bog-standard O'Reilly-style book on programming Rust, since that language will keep evolving. But, if there is one of those that's really good, do recommend it.)

Feel free to spill over in to more math-y topics -- discrete math, combinatorics, and such.
