when you use "free" websites and services you will end up paying for it one way or the other, with your data, with dependence, once you depend on something you are more vulnerable to be exploited for it
besides normal web services, even in places like #Telegram, the mini-apps are just websites that you can open right inside the app, but remote websites controlled by 3rd parties in the end, you depend on them to keep operating the service, they have access to all the data you enter and use inside their mini-app
with #ArcaneChat and other #DeltaChat clients it is a completely different story!
YOU are in full control of the data you enter and use inside the in-chat mini-apps
there is no 3rd party with access to it, all data exchange works peer-to-peer between the chat members
there is no dependence in any website or service at all! it is just a normal attachment you send in the chat
they work #serverless! you can even use them while being #offline, so they are offline-first out of the box
yet even your grandparents can use them without even realizing there is a lot of power and freedom you get under the tips of your fingers!
this shouldn't go unnoticed!
