Does it save your position in the comments of a specific post? That's my #1 criterion for an app. Boost is the only one that I've found that does it

Is Boost dead though? I love it too, but it hasn't updated in a while

There's one feature Boost has that I really miss when I try to switch, which is that it will save your position in the comments of a post. So like if you scroll down halfway and then leave the comments and come back, you are still in the same spot. Every other client I've tried doesn't have that feature and it's kinda a deal breaker for me

Do you really blame them?

You merely adopted the bathroom! I was born in it, moulded by it!

Basically an early version of Wi-Fi calling before Wi-Fi calling was a thing. You signed up for a SIM-free phone number tied to your Google account that allowed you to make calls as long as you had Internet. Calls between US numbers were totally free, even if the Google voice person was in a different country

Anyway, Google voice is still around and has an app. So if you have a Google voice number, you have a totally separate dialer and text message set up, that's distinct from the one for your regular number. But, as I mentioned, the text message part still doesn't support RCS. Pretty embarrassing for Google

Google voice does not support RCS. Typical Google bullshit

That's rash city, Jake, rash city!

The first two have emphasis that imply something different than a simple question. Like you are asking a bunch of people individually, and you are directing each question at a specific person.

The last one would maybe be like, if the person did something weird, and you were sarcastically asking where the are from, to imply that they were raised by wolves, or something like that.

Point being, yes, you can ask like that, but it has different connotations than a simple question, which I think is where you would use the rising intonation.
