1) Multiple different implementations of the interoperable software
2) Allowed people to participate in discussions and send private messages to others all over the world

I've just witnessed the founder being challenged on their Discord about them doing business together with Yandex - where the founder (Vlad) claimed that Yandex has nothing to do with Putin's regime.
This is a lie. And it's a weird one, coming from the founder of a company who's actively involved in doing business with them.

Now witness the power of this fully armed and operational PicoGlitcher.

Second build, this one for an old friend who after many years in the wilderness is back in the field.
