... er.... the only thing stopping an AmericaBad-with-a-gun is an AmericaGood-with-a-gun...?

am glad that https://simplex.chat doesn't even need to touch sensitive personal data strong selectors such as phone numbers or email addresses!

also now that i think of it:

2. there is now a discovery mechanism of some sort... but otherwise it's a feature and not a bug that you can only identify people whom you had an initial exchange with. much preferable than something that Signal that without asking (and without opting out?) will by default access all your contacts and match them through the use of a strong selector (phone number) also:
3. i think with the minimal knowledge the server has of its users (and the no-identity concept) this really limits risk. Also it means that for the most tight of security models, one can use their own server (which is not feasible with most other chat protocols)

so all in all: go simplex! :)

fermenting? to make healthy, cheap, useful, durable and more importantly delicious foods?

a couple of things they got right about uthe future:

• sitting alone in a bubble
• depending on over-architectured machines
• having the illusion to connect to others while only looking at them through something

1. was apparently fixed with latest version.

simplex seems to check all boxes for respecting privacy. it doesnt rely on using any identity (no strong selectors like email addresses or phone number). seems very forward-thinking in its concepts.

Guitarix? https://guitarix.org/

...You wouldn't download a car?!

sure. but you and OP are maybe not "a lot of people" anyways ;)

same here.

my first switch from x to wayland was on the pinephone and that convinced me to make the big jump elsewhere. that feeling of snappiness you describe, from not having all the screen refreshed all the time i gues...?
