I've been using this #pixel6pro all day every day since I bought it refurbished 3 years ago next month. The 1st thing I did with it was install #grapheneos and that's the 1st thing I'll do after putting on a screen protector when I receive the #pixel9a I just ordered. I would've used the old one to the end if I hadn't cracked the screen!
I suspect my next phone will be the 2nd or 3rd version of #gos's own, but either way I plan to keep my other key phone-freeing parts: #jmpchat and #snikket.
Hey #fedifriends for my personal business rather than buy another phone and another sim I decided to try out #jmpchat and I was really impressed.
I got a phone number, it works through their app: #cheogram, I messed up at the beginning but you can reach them through the same app I fixed everything in minutes.
It receive and make calls out of the box through #xmpp their service is based on #opensource software.
I must thanks Noa of #aksnoa show cause I heard about it on his podcast, and he was right.
You get a second number for $5 monthly, it uses your carrier data and nowadays all the majorities of the plan offer unlimited data, it is more convenient than a real second line.
Even though my new number is not ringing yet, I'd like the idea that you can turn off the service at your please.
The only limitation, but I consider a feature, is you cannot use that number with other famous messagging apps because they require a real sim number, hower cheogram is well integrated into #android and if I am able to convince my prospect customers to get an xmpp account we could do more like videoconferencing etc...
Really recommended! 👍
eSIM provisioning support without Play Services or the Google LPAd thanks to @PeterCxy's OpenEUICC.
May appear in next #DivestOS update depending on testing.
And a thanks to #jmpchat for one of their beta eSIMs!

@rantingsteve https://jmp.chat has been super useful for me. You can setup the same number on multiple devices and even access stuff from your computer if necessary.
With a few small bumps, managed to get the #Librem5 booting into a #Mobian installer, and installed with an encrypted rootfs!
So far, only have #Dino configured, but that is enough for this to be a hugely useful communications device, especially with #JMPchat to connect up to telephony networks!
Love the kill switches for cellular modem, wifi/bluetooth and camera/mic!
This is my first #Debian #Trixie based computer, as there may be issues with the now-stable #Bookworm on this hardware.
