    Unfortunately not worth your attention. The author is an idiot in the
    medical sense of the word. :(

    Oh, that's a shame :(

    This is a disaster. :(

    worse then Donald Trump ?

    Golden Point is Fido point package

    In addition, it has low technical compatibility with Fido systems.

    But it's in development, right?

    Yes, but I don't see the prospect.

    like Telegram, i dont see it yet


    Regards Benny
