#Convo, the #XMPP app for #KaiOS that I daybeforeyesterdayish and got published to the #BananaHackers store yesterday, has already crossed 100 downloads!! 🚀️😮️

(It's slowing down now though; the screenshot is from several hours ago and now it's just at 110)
Shoutout to @jcbrand's #ConverseJS which is actually doing all the protocol heavy-lifting. Also, thanks for having a "headless" version which is what made #Convo possible!

@disaster2life I mean #KaiOS is good if you want to also make and receive phone calls/SMS or create a 4G WiFi hotspot on said portable hackable device?
But if those are not important there'd be other options too (check #Beepy and #WiPhone!)
For me, it was the one device I'd carry around (until I got #Mobian on my #PocoF1, but my #Nokia2720Flip is still 💯 when I'm not in the city and apt to be blocked by QR-coded React-bloated ticketing systems or something)
@disaster2life but it was as much "phone" as "hackable device" 🙂
As much as I wish to switch away from JS bloated stuff, I am too scared to switch away and rely too much on all of it.
I've had beepy on my radar, and I have always wanted one / have had plans to make a personal hackable PDA more inline with what I understand as the WiPhone (just learnt of it).
Currently planning on turning my old phone into a linux device, but my laziness knows no bouds :^/
Congratulations! 🎉
@jcbrand oh hey thanks!! 😁️
