minus-squarefxomt the destroyer of worlds@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·edit-24 days ago The protocol doesn’t really matter when you send encrypted messages over it like Delta Chat Maybe. My comment was based off of what i understood from the website Signal is not private Could you elaborate on this? haven’t heard of this point (is it due to the jurisdiction on a 5 eyes country?) SimpleX doesn’t have encrypted group chats last time I tried It actually does now. It’s a very solid choice i’d say :)

Also anyone who knows your username can ping where you are at any time: https://gist.github.com/hackermondev/45a3cdfa52246f1d1201c1e8cdef6117

minus-squarefxomt the destroyer of worlds@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·4 days agoYeah it’s a shame, though i’m going to wait before switching to it to see if it gets itself into any hot water.
