So, we have reasons not to use Signal, reasons not to use Matrix

yes, nearly all possible things in the world have been argued by someone somewhere already

Better than the blockade in Gaza and the apartheid system in the West Bank they've been living under for the last decades.

I don't think it would be a model in terms of human rights, doesn't make Israel's actions any better.

Obviously similar to neighboring countries like Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan.

Depends heavily on which border, I think. I live in eastern Austria and don't know any Czech, Slovak or Hungarian despite those countries being within an hour's drive of where I live. For the most part I expect people in Austria to speak German, I don't expect people even in border villages of Czechia, Slovakia or Hungary to speak German; if they do, that is a nice surprise.

Some years ago, in a border village in one of these countries, a child spoke to me in the local language; I tried speaking in German and English, but the child didn't understand either, I could barely say "I don't speak (your language)" in that language.

No one mentioned "niggardly" yet? What's going on?

Yes, I learned English here in Austria and I remember classmates asking the teacher how to say "vorgestern" and "übermorgen" in English.

We didn't learn the words "ereyesterday" and "overmorrow" that day, only "the day before yesterday" and "the day after tomorrow". :(

Wo? Deutschland? Hier in Österreich haben mE die meisten Diskonter sowas, zB HoT flex.
