I was wondering… because it’s been a while since free doesn’t allow you to have your SIP credentials for the phone line they provide.

I wonder how the landline is used today. I did not even hook up a phone because everything is mobile or apps.

I guess there is a steady slope down.

I maintain my land line so that when a website or business asks for my phone number, I don't give them my mobile. Lots of funny stories with this one.

Good point. The only problem I see with this is that you cannot get a confirmation SMS there
