First post from Boost with 2FA authentication working well. Nice work!

Every December I start practicing classical guitar arrangements of Christmas music, just like I always have.

Android market share in North America is around ~45%. https://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share/mobile/north-america

Globally, Android is ~70%. https://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share/mobile/worldwide

There are regional bubbles for each of course.

Apple's Messages app is a total dumpster fire. Literally every other chat platform out there has figured it out. Snapchat, Telegram, FB Messenger, WhatsApp, Line, etc., all work just fine across platforms. Only Apple wants it to suck for their users whenever a non-Apple device enters the conversation. I can't understand why people willingly subject themselves to that misery and still somehow feel smug about their iOS echo chamber. Pathetic.

I just now finished "The Dawn of Everything" by Graeber and Wengrow, which was an excellent investigation into early civilizations and a nod to their cultural implications for modern society. Looking to steal ideas for my queue in this thread!
