@link @JadedBlueEyes truly the chat protocol of the future
@ariadne @link this is whatsapp, it's literally inescapable 😭
@ariadne @link the future of chat is sending stone tablets via carrier pidgeon
@JadedBlueEyes @ariadne i think it uses Signal's encryption, lol
@link @ariadne Basically every encrypted chat system worth mentioning in the past decade used the signal protocol, and they all have this problem to some extent. MLS is slowly coming onto the scene tho

@link @ariadne @JadedBlueEyes pressing X for doubt

#WhatsApp doesn't do proper #E2EE.
