I have an account on lemmy.world, but when I ping it, I'm in the 100ms. I ended up on lemmy.ca where the ping is 3ms average, it makes a big difference in responsiveness.

OSMAnd is pretty nice, but Organic Maps is just way better IMHO.

That's what I always said. Signal only does one thing right, encryption, and that's it. The rest isn't great, they kept the server side code hidden for 1 year to implement the shitty MoxieCoin (so Moxie and his friends could get rich) and removed SMS recently.

I moved to Telegram and the features are so great there's no way I'll ever use Signal. If you really need E2EE you can use it in personal chats. For regular chats, the fact that you have access to all your messages from everywhere is really convenient.

Organic Maps is indeed open source and available through f-droid/GitHub/Telegram.

It's actively developed and it's UI is more easier to use than OSMAnd. The search accuracy is also way better than in OSMAnd, in which I often can't find places.

Kvaesitso ia great, but I keep coming back to Kiss. Having your most used/history apps easily accessible from bottom to top (instead of being only at the top of the apps folder) is so convenient and easier accessible. You don't have to move your hands to the top of the phone.

Edit: I missed a specific setting that allows you to have the search page reversed (bottom to top), so favorites and most used are at the bottom. It's definitely better, but I still fall back to Kiss.

Have you tried OnlyOffice? It's pretty much like MS office and documents compatibility is really good.

Good tips! I should have explained a bit more, but by getting a server as close as possible, your ping should theoretically be lower than an instance that's far from you (I know, the internet is not a straight line to the server).

The best way to test this is by pinging the server in a CMD prompt/terminal.

The user interface itself is amazing, true seamless multiple device support - including web clients (with your drafts synced on all your devices too), live location sharing, polls, live voice channels, good stickers, bots, public groups/channels, 2gb file sharing, video messages, usernames, etc.

Yeah, you have more control on the widgets in Kvaesitso.

Yeah, I also have one on lemmy.ca, the ping is more consistent (both are 2-3ms).

I never said that lemmy.ca had more performance, I said the ping was lower and responsiveness was better.

Because the only good thing about Signal is it's encryption.

Try using an instance close to your house, with good ping. It makes a huge difference.

Go to https://fediverse.observer/map and select Lemmy instances.

Try wefwef.app (go to this website and install it as an app/add it to your homescreen), it's simply amazing.

As for network errors, try switching to an instance close to your house with a low ping, it'll make a big difference. Go to https://fediverse.observer/map and select Lemmy instances.

Try Telegram. It's feature rich and works flawlessly on multiple devices.

I think that the lemmy.world instance had problems with the influx of users, not really Jerboa. I've switched to a smaller instance and it's rock solid.
