#deltachat PSAs regarding the last 24 hours:

1) If you messaged someone about 20-30 hours ago, and did not get an expected response/receipt better "resend" (long-tap or right-click the message to resend). Unfortunately, not all queued messages at the crashing nine.testrun.org server made it to the new one.

2) 2.33+ app releases are rolling out, supporting using "multiple relays" so that failing relays (like happened above) will not cause lost messages anymore. See https://support.delta.chat/t/how-to-migrate-your-profile-to-another-relay-version-2-33/

A lawsuit accuses Google of activating its bullshit generator, Gemini, by default for various widely used apps, as a way of snooping on what users say in them. It's not impossible to deactivate Gemini, but Google has set up a "dark pattern" to make it so inconvenient that people will give
