@ElysianEve @ondra @dopatwo @signalapp @Mastodon It would be nice if there was a federated/decentralized alternative that's as good as Signal (ease-of-use + security + feature set). Unfortunately there isn't.
@Natanox @ElysianEve @ondra @dopatwo @signalapp @Mastodon I found this an interesting site in order to make a decision on which messaging apps to use (a mix of Signal and Session for my own scenarios). Might be of interest to others too (?). https://www.securemessagingapps.com/
Secure Messaging Apps Comparison | Privacy Matters

This site compares secure messaging apps from a security & privacy point of view. These include Facebook Messenger, iMessage, Skype, Signal, Simplex, Google Messenger, Threema, Riot, Wire, Telegram, and Wickr

@healthiswealth @ElysianEve @ondra @dopatwo @signalapp @Mastodon That's nice, lacks a few though (e.g. Briar).
Unfortunately if you want mass adoption you really need the jack of all trades. It's phenomenally hard work to combine all three aspects mentioned earlier, especially if you also want it to not use a classical centralized approach. Matrix attempted to do this and it's a buggy mess ever since. Other projects usually let go of either ease-of-use or features.

@ElysianEve @ondra @dopatwo @signalapp @Mastodon Hi. It's a good start for some I thought especially since it's easy to visually compare the ones it lists. I've not visited it for a while to be honest so not sure it's fully up to date either (scrolling this site earlier on my phone was dreadful) & yes no Briar. There is also the privacy vs security aspect which are two different things of course :)

@Natanox @ElysianEve@toot.community @ondra @dopatwo @signalapp @Mastodon SimpleX kinda is
