Is there anything better than SimpleX for total anonimity?

Although I also use Molly, a modified version of Signal, even with people that have my number for Signal I still prefer SimpleX for everybody, but unfortunately Molly/Signal is easier for some people.

Especially for things like resetting phone or changing phones, with Molly they know where I am and there’s no need for an invite link with SimpleX, but I still grealy prefer it.

    I really like delta chat as well. Anonymous mails are easy to come by and everyone has an email adress. Bonus: people actually start encrypting their messages.

    IMHO, it is a good balance between adoption and security. Still not perfect, though.

      I’ve looked at Delta chat and have wondered if it’s worth it. I only use webmail on computer for all of my emails because I need the screen real estate, zero email on phone. Phone is only calling and messaging.

      Should I give Delta chat a try for doing long form emails including documents?

        Only if you like the “Messenger App” form factor. Delta chat is nothing but a mail client with a messenger UI. Fortunately, that includes automatic PGP encryption for users who do not know what that is (similar to what whatsapp/signal did for E2EE).

        You can still try it out. It literally has no downsides. And if you like to use it as a chat-client only, it supports that option, too.

          I get what you’re saying. My personal contacts are all already on SimpleX and Signal. Email is for business things and contacting companies, that’s why I do it all on computer for reading through form letters, documents, blah blah blah, with a proper monitor from emails that are 5 paragraphs, 8 paragraphs long.

            Yeah, that’s not what delta chat is for.

            I feel that this would have been perfect 10 years ago. Before everyone gave up their phone number to Whatsapp/Facebook.

              Yeah, delta chat would have been great 15 years ago when email was all people had for communication.

              I only use phone for messaging and calls. No videos, no multimedia, no websites, or very rarely, no email, all of that is done on one of my computers when I can have multiple programs going.

              I use multiple screens for my workflow and phone is another screen in there as well. Computers are for work and entertainment, communications is on phone.

              After I get Signal going on FreeBSD that will be one less thing to need phone for.
