    Off-topic: the Mastodon federation with Lemmy is awkward as fuck. Ugly markdown links get added to thread titles, and very often there are misunderstandings as they believe they’re tagging official accounts.

        It’s obviously not your fault as that’s the state of Mastodon <=> Lemmy federation right now and this is how threads appear on our end:

        And don’t worry you’re in the right community 😁 (assuming you didn’t indeed look for an official one managed by Google as that doesn’t exist)

        As for your question, I don’t know about that process, but a quick Google search yields this source file: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/packages/services/Telephony/+/master/src/com/android/phone/vvm/RemoteVvmTaskManager.java

        and when you scroll further down there’s this comment that explains its purpose:

        Service to manage tasks issued to the {@link VisualVoicemailService}. This service will bind to the default dialer on a visual voicemail event if it implements the VisualVoicemailService. The service will hold all resource for the VisualVoicemailService until {@link VisualVoicemailService.VisualVoicemailTask#finish()} has been called on all issued tasks.

        If the service is already running it will be reused for new events. The service will stop itself after all events are handled.

        And here’s the doc entry for Visual Voicemail: https://source.android.com/docs/core/permissions/voicemail

        tl;dr: It’s not suspicious, it’s part of the Android OS.

        • @AlmightySnoo Thank you so much for the clear and detailed answer ❤️ I did search through that docs earlier but wasn’t able to find these exact answers 🥲

          The reason why asked was this process keeps on restarting on my device (disabled all google apps so don’t know if it have something to do with that) and also its name “remote vvm” got me suspicious🥲🥲😇

          And about Lemmy-Mastodon federation,I have viewed from the browser and saw it 😷.

          This Thread is pefect 🥰 and Thank you Again. 🙌🏾🙌🏾 Cheers!

        if you want to make your posts more convenient to us lemmings, don’t mention/tag until the second paragraph

        the first paragraph gets converted into a title with the ugly formatting, but as long as the first paragraph is plaintext (or uses lemmy formatting) it looks fine
