out of the loop, what's the problem with signal?
(thelemmy.club)
i've just seen a comment in a post, in this very community, saying people trust signal because of missinformation (from what i could undertand).
if this is true, then i have a few questions:
-what menssaging app should i use for secure communications? i need an app that balances simplicity and security.
-how to explain it to my friends who use signal because i recomended?
-what this means for other apps in general?
Telegram never was the private alternative to anything, unless you took their advertisement at face value. It was always known to not use e2ee by default.
Signal is not a problem, the US gov things were very dumb users issues. It was not caused by Signal itself.
So the goalpost has not moved in years, Signal was and is still good, Telegram is only fine if you do not care about privacy.
