@moin @jwildeboer ja, @signalapp ist so ein absolut beschissener Rotz!
- Aber #Telegram, #discord & Co. sind kein deut besser!
Hinzu kommt dass der #Metadaten - #FUD der #Signal-Fans vollkommen für'n Arsch ist wenn die ne #Rufnummer verlangen (ohne dass es "technisch nitwendig" ist)…
- #Rufnummern, die seit 07.2017 in #Deutschland nicht mehr legal anonym beziehbar sind!

My [reservations](https://infosec.space/@kkarhan/114234551915193036) and [criticism](https://infosec.space/@kkarhan/114862595629371002) re: #Signal are not just valid, but the reality is *even worse than I thought*: - The fact that @[email protected] requires not only their shitty #Android #App, and a #PhoneNumber but literally won't allow people to use their shitty #Desktop-App unless they have an Android device with a camera pointed at it makes it utterly unuseable for certain users *who don't have a fucking #camera in their Android*… Seriously, do they expect folks to deal with that shit? - It's already worse in terms of #UX than #telegram and #discord and that too makes #XMPP+#OMEMO clients like @[email protected] / #monoclesChat & @[email protected] / #gajim easier and faster to onboard #TechIlliterates onto. - Whichever asshole decided that a *replacement for #SMS* should mandate #PII like a #PhoneNumber & not be natively cross-platform should be banned from doing any #tech in their life. Trying to circumvent this shit and helping folks with it makes me so fucking angry that I'm now explicitly refusing to support it! FIX THAT SHIT, @[email protected], and if it means you need to kick some devs in their crouch then consider this a necessary *"investment"*… #sarcasm #TechSupport #TalesFromTechSupport #Enshittification #SignalSucks #TelegramSucks #Messengers
