minus-squarethrowaway284921384@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down3·4 years agoLets get everyone using Signal, that isn’t actually backdoored by the NSA!
minus-squareJojonintendo@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up1·4 years agoI didn’t know about this one, thanks!
minus-squarethrowaway284921384@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down2·4 years agoI agree the only thing with Signal is it needs a phone number, but the protocol that is solid. Its more practical to have people switch to signal from whatsapp in my opinion
minus-squarelemmy_gap@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up0·4 years agoSignal is working on a solution for that, I believe, I read something about Usernames, but I can be wrong…
minus-squarermc0@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up0·4 years agoThere is getsession.org it’s signal crypto but decentralized and whitout phone number
minus-squarermc0@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up0·4 years agoBut element.io (matrix) is really powerfull with some bridge to other chat
minus-squareihaphleas@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up0·4 years agoGreat option. Session is even more private, but a bit laggy. What’s missing is end-to-end encrypted voip.
minus-squareroastpotatothief@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up0·4 years agoIs the only advantage that you don’t need a phone number? If so, how does it compare against Wire (which is IMO a nearly perfect solution)
minus-squareEchedenyan@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up0·4 years agoDelta Chat is an EMail client with steroids that aims to build a specification (Chat over IMAP) to adapt the infraestructure even more.
minus-squareroastpotatothief@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up0·edit-24 years agoThanks, got it. Is a good idea. I’ll start following it. Do all the email servers have to make changes to support it? Dies the IMAP standard have to change to support it?
minus-squareyeolsongarak@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up0·4 years agoI personally use Element but I think recommending Signal is a great step forward for the average person.
