I have deep reservations about SimpleX. No source code, one very private developer with a Russian name. Sounds like a honey-trap to me.
@Tutanota@mastodon.social I use session, simplex and element
@Tutanota@mastodon.social
@Tutanota@mastodon.social my favotite chat app is #mollyapp @mollyim@fosstodon.org
@Tutanota@mastodon.social Threema
@Tutanota@mastodon.social Why not XMPP stuff?
@Tutanota@mastodon.social Signal.
@Tutanota@mastodon.social @threemaapp@mastodon.social and @signalapp@mastodon.world obviously. Any other is the Devil. 😈
@Tutanota@mastodon.social
Matrix! 🤩 Decentral, federated and selfhostable. And no dependency on an Android app on a single device to keep the account alive.
@Tutanota@mastodon.social
Ich nutze mittlerweile ausschließlich #SimpleX und bin sehr zufrieden damit.
@Tutanota@mastodon.social
Indeed add Briar to the list
@Tutanota@mastodon.social yo why pick that color scheme for your chart
@Tutanota@mastodon.social #SimpleX and #DeltaChat
@Tutanota@mastodon.social @simplex@mastodon.social and @delta@chaos.social
@Tutanota@mastodon.social Threema.
About #Session: They are supported by Loki Group, and one of these guys was connect to the alt-right. Is this still true?

@Tutanota@mastodon.social Signal. Because:
@Tutanota@mastodon.social There should be another row, "is it hosted in the USA", since that makes them liable to a FISA warrant and a government mandated backdoor that they can't disclose. Main reason Signal is not an option for me.
@Tutanota@mastodon.social For broader use i use Signal. Private Element and SimpleX.
@Tutanota@mastodon.social Signal FTW.
@Tutanota@mastodon.social matrix is considered a metadata hell, so, not sure i'd call element "anonymous" (at least, that was the case, last time i checked :

#cwtch might be another alternative to keep an eye on.
2c.
@Tutanota@mastodon.social My favorite Chat app is Threema. Both private and anonymous.
@Tutanota@mastodon.social Signal! Works great, very easy to use and doesn't require PHD to understand it
