I don’t know if calls work, but all the other stuff you mention does work.

Ah. Good point. I don’t think I’ve received calls. I don’t know if they would work

I have an old device in the closet and use the matrix bridge. The bridge bot kindly reminds me to turn on the phone every 12 days, but I think WA’s requirement is 15 days.

I do have to ask though: other than basic text chat, what else does WA offer these days?

For the record, I’m able to see videos, images and listen to audio. Haven’t received a poll yet. Is there anything more to it?

I’m lazy, so… here you go:

Initial release of xorg was 2004

Yeah, but XOrg was forked from XFree86.

Missed your post before the edit. But I’d like to read your rant on Matrix. Even if it’s just a TL;DR.
