It looks like SimpleX has actually thought about the difficult problems with having multiple servers in a private messenger system.

I haven’t read in enough detail to be sure that they’ve succeeded in solving the problems, but they’re doing better than most of the other things I’ve looked at in this space. Signal could probably learn some lessons.

@Tutanota
I keep hearing about #SimpleX but background checks on who is behind it go back to some random Russian guy based in London. Not the best recommendation for either company director or country of registration.
There's claims that it's been audited but only by one company "Trail of Bits".
Then there's SimpleX disclaimer which specifically states that it may be neither secure or safe.
Doesn't instil confidence.

@arstechnica If you dont want to be charged for piracy don't post pirated material on accounts linked to you, use #tor or private social media/messengers like #simplex

Countering toxicity and fake takes is not just a technical question (moderation, admins etc) but one of social curation both collectively and privately: which people and groups do you/we trust for what. No tool can automate that.

#deltachat is for private e2ee messaging and mutually curated group chats, and not random social media propelled onboarding. We are with #Signal here and not with #simplex and #matrix who offer public anonymous discovery of large chat groups with lots of unknown folks.

Trop de bruit avec Signal : les métadonnées en cause dans les messageries chiffrées

https://blogs.mediapart.fr/xcli/blog/160725/trop-de-bruit-avec-signal-les-metadonnees-en-cause-dans-les-messageries-chiffrees

#Signal est régulièrement désigné comme LA meilleure application de messagerie sécurisée. Pour autant, cette supériorité universelle et présentée sans nuance relève d'un manque de finesse de l'analyse. Pire, elle met en danger les journalistes et leurs sources, les activistes et certaines minorités. Nous voyons pourquoi dans cet article.
