ChatGPT is just mostly saying incorrect things.
Messages should sync across devices and all devices online should
receive the call (if one pickup, other devices will hangup)
If a second device is linked, it will sync all conversations from other
devices.

Hi,
You can either have the same account on two places,
or, have 2 places each have their own account.
If you have same account on more than one device.
Then you introduce a synchronization topic.
Because with Jami there's no central server, those devices would have
to synchronize with each-other about what is the 'newest state'.
But.. This is what ChatGPT has to say about it:
_--_
_About Jami and how it communicates over the Distributed Hash Table
(DHT) when using the same account on multiple devices._
_If you have two devices logged into the same Jami account, here's how
they interact:_
*
_Independent DHT Nodes - Each device acts as an independent node in
the DHT network. This means both devices register their own presence
on the network separately._
*
_Message Delivery - When a message is sent to your Jami account, it
typically goes to the latest active device (the one that was last
online or interacted with). Messages are not automatically synced
across all logged-in devices like in centralized messaging apps._
*
_Calls and Peer-to-Peer - Calls are established directly between two
peers using the best available route (LAN, IPv6, or via TURN if
necessary). If someone calls your Jami account, only one of your
devices may receive the call, depending on network conditions and
which device is active._
*
_No Cloud Sync - Jami does not store messages or call logs on
centralized servers. This means if you log in on a second device,
previous conversations will not be automatically available unless
messages were manually sent between devices._
*
_Device Linking - While Jami supports using the same account on
multiple devices, they do not automatically sync messages. However,
you can transfer files between your own devices using Jami's
peer-to-peer functionality._
