To avoid the detection and abuse by spam, otherbots, and people
that duck-n-run, the fidonet ones are private or invite only.
Originally (about a year ago now) that meant that an existing
member was needed to "invite" another person OR add that person
to a group. However (now about a year later), it is self
administrating.

If you already have Telegram set up, there are only two steps
to link up:

[1] Send a %LIST command in the chat with the @Fido2telebot for
list of available areas.

[2] Send a %help command in the chat with the @Fido2telebot for
more info.

The %LIST will send you a full list of echos available to join
by providing the invite links for you. The list may take a few
minutes to arrive (it's also in two parts).

The specifically "Fidonet" (English) ones will have "Fidonet"
in the description. There is one echo/group exception,
FIDOTEST; that one is English too.

After you've joined a group/echo, you will be able to read the
back history of messages. But you will be able to POST only
after you complete a part of the %userprofile with the
@Fido2telebot bot.

The %userprofile allows you to create an optional tagline, a
signature, a real name, etc. This is akin to a minimum
registration on a BBS.

Yes... that seems to be a consequence of people once being

Like I said.. I bet Telegram was designed with smartphones/
tablets in mind considering that sales seem to indicated most
people have migrated to those devices or that they are are 1st
devices of purchase for those entering the "net" realm for the
first time?

Meanwhile, Telegram's desktop solution (via an Electron core)
might be a kludge, but it is a fine and efficient kludge never
the less. However, Telegram's open API allows anyone to design
and build their own Telegram app. It would be cool if there
was one that handled Fidonet echos with FTN characteristics in
mind: in-line requoting, random taglines, etc.

But the current solution provided by a sysop located in Crimea
is very clever. He's built a bot that basically acts like a
scanner/tosser and accomodates the various FTN requirements.

The bot even accomodates modest netmail-to-Telegram messaging
and visa versa. It's not a vastly advertised feature, but one
that I am willing to explain how to operate to anyone who pops
onto the network and asks me! ;)

I know that WhatsApp probably sells my data and spys on me, etc... but it's a
very functional app. The reason it works in the UK is that EVERYONE is using
it. I think in other countries IMs are splintered between iMessage, WhatsApp
along with other messengers and people end up just using SMS text messaging as
a happy medium. I mostly chat on WhatsApp with my friends and I am also part of
a number of group chats with people I know and casual acquaintances. If I am
playing a computer game on the PC with friend, we will usually speak over
Skype. That's really the extent of social media and instant messengers for me.

Lol, BBSes are totally niche to the wider population. I have mentioned it to a
few people and have been met back with vacant blank stares. The closest main
stream thing I can think of to describe BBSes is Teletext... only BBSes are
like an interactive forum version of that. We are at the stage now where a lot
of people don't even know what Teletext is though.

There's also an entry barrier as BBSes are much more complicated to use than
websites like Reddit, Facebook or other forums. The only reason I learned about
the BBS scene is because I have a few oldie 80s computers I like to use online
which is a fairly niche reason to be on in the first place.

A lot of new users pop their heads in to see what the 80s internet was all
about before going back onto the regular modern internet.

Here's a shout-out to Keepass and Google Drive. I keep my keepass file in
Google Drive and have my passwords on my phone *and* on my desktop and
laptop.

I use a plugin to add a "Connect via Putty" and "Connect Via WinSCP" right-
click entry, so I for the systems I don't use a key with I can automatically
connect without having to copy/paste creds.

.... Where is the edge?

M> that must be great for getting people.

I was just explaining the security behind it so that the
Fidonet echos don't get spam. But if you're all set with
Telegram , all you have to do is talk to the @Fido2telebot and
send it the command %HELP and %LIST (akin to what BBSes do) and
you wil receive all the info you need to get started.

One more final registration with sending %userprofile to the
bot to establish the real-name requirement, and you're done.

M> fuck that shit.
M> i dont have time in my life for that horseshit.

That's hard for you? All that would only take less than 30 sec.
That's too much time? :/ OK.

I don't trust a phone enough to manage a master password database from it.

I use password-store instead, hosted in an SSH shell I control. I purposedly
only use the password databse from machines trustworthy enough to initiate an
SSH connection to the server hosting the database.

If you like the Google Drive approach, Nextcloud would also work, pluss it has
its own integrated password management solution via plugins.

My condolences for downloading and installing Discord.

Don't forget to send your RAM to the hospital so they can use a rape kit on it
after Discord is finished with it.

Windows 11 has that too (works with Android, dunno about iOS). Of
course, I've been using Google Voice, since it was Grand Central before
Google bought them, so using my phone and desktop is pretty much been
it... though I've also experienced every pain of Google's schizophrenic
approach to chat applications.

I'm linked up with ProgrammerJokes and one of the RT news

That's cool. I heard Windows 11 is supposed to be able to run Android apps.

I had a Samsung phone not too long ago, and they had some software for Windows PCs that would let you control your phone from your PC. It would show the phone's screen on your PC and you could interact with it using that software. I thought it was interesting.

The minimum requirement for %userprofile is Real Name.

The other parts, %LIST and %HELP are no different than what any
