      What’s your experience with using mysudo/voip numbers in terms of services accepting them (e.g. Google)? And socially, can you do regular calls with these numbers? Any audio delays?

      (copied my comment for the top context comment but the other person hasn’t answered yet, wanted to get some info on these kinds of services first hand)

        Haven’t used it [silent.link] myself. All I know is that all (or some) plans they offer include only incomming-calls, not outgoing. But good point you make about delays. That’s important. Haven’t thought about that myself.

        I’m not too versed in it myself yet. You were asking about these services in general, right? Since you wrote “voip numbers”. I’ll keep tabs on your other comment then

          Right. I’m considering trying out voip numbers but concerned about these disadvantages. Not that I call much anyways, just don’t want to make a frustrating calling experience more frustrating lol
