Exactly, it takes several seconds, and sometimes I close the app on my phone without realising it hasn’t synced yet and then when I go to my desktop it’s not there.
Because of this I find myself opting for the “Note to Self” feature on Signal more and more when I am on my phone. It is super basic, but when I put something there it appears instantly on all my other devices.







Depends on how you define piracy. Using code you found on GitHub for example where the author forgot to put up a license, is technically a copyright violation. Even if Microsoft doesn’t put any restrictions on downloading the jar file, unless you have a license which you get by purchasing it, you are technically pirating. If your definition of piracy is using a piece of software without a license that is.
It doesn’t matter from where or how you obtained the software, it’s about whether you are actually allowed to use it. Linux ISOs are often distributed via torrents, nobody claims that this is piracy because you are not downloading the software directly from the developer.
