Xerox, inventor of the GUI and mouse, a company whose equipment name became a verb, one of the most influential technology companies of all time, is gone.They are from my hometown. You can see Xerox tower from my dad's bedroom window. MangoCon was held just one block from there. My last corporate job was in the same building as Xerox HQ.

Interestingly, @dominica's first IT job was at Fujifilm.

I've had loads of bad experiences, but I need a dual SIM card phone and I am tired of Apple's high prices and lack of innovation.

Did you read the article?
It was removed because of a lack of ways to prevent porn in public channels basically. Without digging further, one would assume with things like sticker packs and ways to report specific users.

Yeah I read that, those aren't things I appreciate Apple getting involved in. It's peer to peer communications, of course porn can be there. So can Safari.
Even public channels... you still opt in to a conversation.

But all they require is ways to report it. They are not after control.
