That's actually kind of scary. I left Twitter/X because of that kind of shadowbanning.

The scammers also do it on voicemails (Chinese consulate, DHL, other spoofed orgs), but I've got those USPS texts quite a few times.

I don't fall for it but for some people, it's easy for them to not recognize it as a scam.

Been using Xubuntu 23.10 recently, but I'm kind of a distro hopper. I need ROCm and some other special (proprietary, ehh) tools that require RHEL, SLE, or some Ubuntu flavor. I also like having a working out-of-the-box configuration. I've used openSUSE Tumbleweed and Arch Linux before, might try it again but it's a little bit complicated to me.
