One reason why you need to use a proper privacy respecting E2EE messaging e.g. Signal.
Jamil has entered the chat. P2P with E2EE, so you only ever need some internet connection to stay in touch, no servers to be taken down.
The only problem is that it'll eat your phone's battery like chrome eats RAM
Bonus points for one that does not even have your personal information e.g. Session.
Session is unfortunately not really an improvement. Signal have started work on options which won't need a number to register, I'd rather wait for that
Session is pretty much dead at this point
+1 for session
also matrix....
Wasn't session closing down?
Add Delta Chat, Briar and Cwtch to that list!
SimpleX best so far. Decentralized but not federated, anonymous and with multi-hops
Briar is in a whole different league, definitely one to use, but at that point may as well add Meshtastic stuff to the list.
Reticulum at that point. Probably its best use case
