What about Tox and briar etc. Why Status? Only these if you need p2p. What’s wrong with Matrix or XMPP. They’re both great, have very low resource clients which is important.
I like Tox over Tor…really fast. But offline messaging is a problem.
I don’t like Briar because it is Android only.
I don’t like XMPP/Matrix because its more technical with too many options. I also want something anonymous. I also prefer not having a centralized server to connect or relay messages. You can accomplish these things, but its not simple for the average user.
Signal would make my list if I didn’t have the hand over my phone number.
Status, Session, and Tox+Tor are my favorites right now. Mainly because they do everyone I want without me having to do anything. Session seems to be more mature and active. Status has some interesting concepts, but it is too soon to see how they’ll workout, or someone from Status needs to do a lot better job of explaining it to me. So Session is my goto.
I have doubts true P2P will be solved. But Status may have the next best solution.
