Plus le temps passe, plus je me dis que DeltaChat est une purin de bonne idée.
J'essaie de poser les raisons qui me font apprécier DeltaChat (et aussi ce qui la distingue de Signal): https://sebsauvage.net/links/?cdQxCA
@[email protected] @[email protected] > - The invitation link is not expirable (unlike Signal). I already mentioned this in another reply, but just so Julianoe also get it: Delta Chat also has expiring links, it is possible to expire/reset your invite link by clicking it yourself (you will get offered then to expire it) or also in the screen where the QR is shown, in the three dots menu > - no automatic daily backup possible (you have to do it by hand) this is also not really true! each "second device" in delta chat works as an (incremental!!!) automatic backup, so all you need to setup automatic (incremental which mean you don't need to upload a full several GBs backup every time) backup is to add your profile to a second device, this also means you have backups without needing any cloud service at all! which as you might now it is just "someone else's computer" and eventually in signal you have to pay for backup storage as your account grows

Je ne sais pas si ça sera possible un jour mais de ce que j'ai compris c'est qu'aucun appareil ne sait si d'autres appareils sont connectés. Il n'y a pas de notion d'appareil primaire et secondaire ou plus (si je ne me trompe pas). Du coup ça me paraît logique que ça ne soit pas possible.
@rodolphe @sebsauvage @Julianoe
Et si j'ai bien compris cela implique d'ailleurs techniquement que dès qu'un compte est ajouté sur un deuxième appareil les messages restent stockés plus longtemps sur le serveur pour être sûr que tous les appareils les chopent (14 jours max sur runtest.org il me semble) alors qu'avec un seul appareil le message disparaît du serveur dès qu'il est délivré à l'appareil.
Que quelqu'un me corrige si je me trompe quelque part bien sûr !
