Yep. It works and it's awesome. I use conversations on android devices and dino and gajim on desktops, various family members use siskin on iOS.
With zero app or server-software or provider lock-in, and an actual in-practice diversity of apps and providers, the whole thing seems pretty immune to enshittification.
I wonder when (if?) orbital radio receiver arrays (a la starlink) are sensitive and discriminating enough to be used for this type of attack.

Conversations can be a unified push distibutor: https://unifiedpush.org/users/distributors/conversations/
..and I'd trust it (battery-wise) with that. I have an old tablet with conversations running without battery restrictions on it, and if I'm not actually picking it up and using it it regularly goes 1-2 weeks on an 80% battery charge before it dies, the whole time giving audible notifications for XMPP messages/calls (which I attend to on other devices).
No, per hour of travel time.
Having wider tyres ~2"/50mm or so pretty much eliminates the risk (and gives a comfy ride). If you really like the speed of narrow tyres, it's really quite safe with the right technique -- crossing tracks at an angle to avoid mishaps (I find 30° is sufficient, 90° is never a problem), and when they're slippery, treating them like ice. It becomes second nature soon enough.
I think there are some rubber/elasromer inserts which have been developed which also eliminate the groove -- it presents a flat surface to bikes, yet squishes down for the tram wheel flange under the immense weight.
Sounds like you have too few geese/sheep, that's all. 😆
Try different types of coffee, even different regions or growing conditions.
Among arabica clutivars, Ethiopian beans seem to sit the best with me, Brazilian makes me anxious AF.
I suspect altitude might be the correlation -- Colombian, Kenyan, PNG also seem to sit well; Indian, Australian, Mexican also make me anxious.
Brewing methods can give different feels, too. Espresso vs filter vs cold drip.
Slavery, abortion, prison, or guns?
