Many people have had easy success with Firefox by spoofing a “Chrome on Windows” user agent; you can use an extension like this one to do so.

I’ve been using this on my iPhone for a bit (it’s free)

I really like being able to completely customize the address bar and items on it, as well as the main menu items, and the URL menu/contextual menu (the thing that appears when you hold down on a link)

there’s an iPad version available too via TestFlight

Built for speed and performance, with a complete redesign of the look and feel. You'll be able to try it for yourself soon…

A small sample of the many new features:

  • OLED black theme
  • Local message cache (all chats open instantly)
  • Add/modify chat networks (no need to set up on desktop)
  • Chat bubbling
  • Tablet (multi-pane) mode
  • Full message search (across all your chat networks)

He added, on Matrix, “Plan is to offer local bridges for all encrypted networks”

Although confirming this would be the case at launch, it was unclear specifically which networks are counted as encrypted.

multiple reports on Discord, Matrix, and Telegram, seem to suggest that, without any notice, Apple is lifting the hardware bans which had been applied to Apple users who had used their Macs and Apple IDs with Beeper

Apple gets the message, RCS coming to iPhone in 2024 with same Universal Profile as Android in c/signal@lemmy.ml
[–] bartleby1@lemmy.ml 1 points 10 months ago

the same universal profile as Android

Actually Google Messages extends beyond the universal profile. If you check the current spec, there is no encryption nor reactions, yet Google messages has them. Apple Messages won’t for RCS.

And that's why you shouldn't pirate kids. in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
