-`Aminda-Janus (2023-061)` - my primary phone due to the killer feature of being able to `adb push` whatever ringtones I want unlike iOS which is very picky on what to accept as ringtones. As noted before, I mostly use it from WLAN with help from Briar Desktops unless charging.
-`Mikaela` - my tertiary phone predating the naming scheme discussed earlier,
Port: [it will pick one and try to stick with it](https://matrix.to/#/%23briar_desktop%3Atchncs.de/%24FKJk80vFnp2Fqnyov8g2S1QGJuY8SrJBlPjjqGSaW5M?via=pikaviestin.fi&via=matrix.org&via=dendrite.matrix.org&via=tchncs.de), so `sudo netstat -plnt` is your friend, look for `java`. It should be on LAN and link-local interfaces.
I install it from Flathub and at the time of writing it seems to roughly have feature parity with the Android version meaning all private messages, forums, private groups, mailbox and forums are supported in that order.
- > Please note that Briar will only synchronize messages with your contacts, not with nearby strangers who are running Briar. And it will only sync the messages you’ve chosen to share with each contact. For example, if you invite your contacts X and Y to join a forum, and they accept, then messages in that forum will be synced with X or Y whenever they’re within range. So you can receive forum messages from X in one location, travel to another location, and deliver those messages to Y.
- > But this doesn’t work for private messages: they’re only synchronized directly between the sender and recipient.
- > Your Briar link contains a public key and it is safe to publish in the same way as a PGP public key. If you want to contact someone via Briar, both of you need to add each other's links.
- > No, your online status isn't exposed by publishing your `briar://` link. Only your contacts can tell whether you're online.
- > No. Unlike with adding contacts at a distance and its 48 hours timeout, there's no such thing for introductions.
