is anyone else experiencing an increase in DROPPED CALLS or TRASHY CALL QUALITY since the launch of Retrospec? long-distance in particular. or is there some other, better explanation for this change that I'm unaware of? after plenty of baseless excuses that turned out to be false, my carrier claims that there's noooothing wrong on their end. but what good are they? they also can't find an app on my phone that we know exists.

it's shocking that nobody else has said anything... unless it really is just me and every single phone I touch.

the cutting out thing. that's common and lately, the #1 reason I cut my calls short. good to know it's not just me, except not.

well thats
weird
i have no idea what to do with this information

what you do with it is tell me if you find any alternatives that don't have this problem. or, tell me if things get better. I'll be looking for alternatives, anyway.

hm
have you tried text messages?

I did, but that's an unreliable method in my case. my mom misses texts a lot of the time.

I'd rather call anyway

i wonder if retrospec is trying to sell us on a cell plan or something
maybe theyre a carrier and theyre trying to get us all to switch

and so the general public's to be excluded from this scam, since they can't even comprehend Retrospec's existence?? can you even CALL people on this thing? it's nothing close to being a carrier, if that were its intent.

uh
i think you can call people who also have the app but
that is useless to our purposes so fuck that admittedly

honestly im not sure wtf their goal is other than to weird us out

oh. huh.
that's not a good replacement for regular calling though. you share my sentiments exactly.
I'm not weirded out by this. they're failing in that respect. now if it's to be a major inconvenience for no good reason... or? maybe they need to update their app to fix SOMEthing interfering with calls.

i mean like an overall company goal
so i was including horses being chickens in that
but like with this specific instance im not sure wtf the point is

Retrospec™ mission statement: confuse our userbase with arbitrary yet complete replacements of commonplace objects and expose them to vivid hallucinatory experiences to instill doubt and concern. because we're bored.

whatever. it's weird, yes.. but agitating, inconveniencing. but intriguing.

tbh that sounds EXACTLY like what their mission statement has got to be and i question life in general

also
while communication breakdowns outside the city seem to be in effect ones within are not
