I recommend #XMPP - #OMEMO for most users [#Gajim and #monoclesChat are excellent clients for that!] but if you are an organization then consider #Zulip and if you already have a #Mailserver and use #PGP / MIME then @delta / #DeltaChat may be a good option [tho I'd recommend using a seperate eMail account for that!]...
@saagar@signalapp@retr0id Even then I'd say this is flaky at best, since one can't really evidence that to be the case if tuere's neither FLOSS clients nor Server implementatioms to test against...
Gestern habe ich mir #Mobian@mobian mit #Phosh auf mein #Pinephone pro installiert.
Was soll ich sagen? ... Ich bin begeistert!
Gut, die Akkulaufzeit ist sehr klar verbesserungswürdig.
Aber "nur für Entwickler geeignet" ist es definitiv nicht mehr. Für mein Empfinden: es ist eine stabile Beta-qualität.
Kamera, GPS, Rotation, Telefon, SMS, WiFi, Mobile Daten, Karten, ...
Sehr viel besser, als das vorinstallierte Manjaro mit KDE. ...
Als nächstes synchronisierte ich mir Kalender und Kontakte mit meiner Nextcloud. 👍
Was mir aktuell noch ernsthaft fehlt ist ein QR-Code-Scanner (wie z.B. Cobang) und die Batterieoptimierung / eine bessere Batterie.
Das Jahr für ein stabiles #LinuxOnMobile ist nicht mehr weit!
Besonders gelungen ist bei @mobian mit #Phosh auch die "App" #Chats, die neben #SMS ganz selbstverständlich anbietet, einen #XMPP oder #Matrix-Account hinzuzufügen.
Ich habe leider nur noch nicht gefunden, wie ich dort #OMEMO für XMPP aktiviere. ... Naja, wird schon noch werden.
a client made by an enterprise who will willingly backdoor your messages
a client made by 3 people that get random breaking changes that completely obliterate flow
a client that is one giant html5 canvas that uses 100% of your browser gpu power
a client that requires systemd
way too many abandoned android and ios clients
please use fedi we have:
an instance software which is so popular but so feature deprived it makes no sense why it exists, also it's trademarked in a bad way
an instance software that has so much code rot it spawned 500 forks to try and fix it only to become rotten themselves
an instance software that doesn't really know what it's doing and instead implemented 3 different api standards, and this is the fork i'm talking about. no one should talk about the upstream project.
Where I speak some advantages Signal has over the bigger richer rest of tech:
“We don’t have to be full of shit. We’re not a surveillance company. I’m not trying to pretend Facebook is good. I don’t have to toe a party line that is divorced from reality”
Was reminded recently that Discord has taken nearly $1 billion in VC cash: https://tracxn.com/d/companies/discord/__5rlLgsamoGCjo5gATenpy383J_jyBToAQkMl2B_f99w
No judgment if you've already built a community there, but everyone really needs to treat it as a ticking time bomb. It's already failed its users many times over; it's just a question of when those failures will escalate beyond even the most indifferent user's tolerance. Every community deserves better. Good alternatives are a survival imperative.
Hell yeah #SignalApp@signalapp :party_parrot: :party_parrot:
Signal users will now be able to edit messages (very similar to how the edit feature works on @Mastodon ) 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I personally use #XMPP+#OMEMO for 1:1 chats and have deployed and maintained several #Zulip / https://zulip.com instances as a #corporate & #organizational chat, as it's more user-friendly than #IRC yet also allows for the necessary granularity and auditability.
Ich suche eine App, welche meine Ergüsse Parallel auf Twitter, Mastodon, Post, Bluesky und Threads postet und die Antworten sortiert. Und dann bitte einen Messanger für WA, Signal, Telegram, iMessage, Threema, ...
Firmenkommunikation muss archiviert werden, also geht faktisch nur etwas das dies kann - sei es #DeltaChat (welches #eMail nutzt) oder #Zulip (als self-hosted oder #managedHpsting - Variante)...
Der Rest wird langfristig #XMPP+#OMEMO bzw. XMPP+#PGP/MIME lernen müssen...
@rail Why anyone would have demand for that in lieu of #XMPP + #OMEMO, #Zulip and #IRC is beyond me but it's always good to have more options I guess...
oh don’t worry, discord won’t shut down. it will just gradually enshittify more and more as it keeps trying to make more money as the vc funds dry up, eventually being bought by a large corporation looking to sell the user data for a nice profit.
then once it gets bad enough, another centralized, proprietary platform will pop up that promises to be slightly better than discord (at least, better than discord after its gradual decline), people will move to it in droves, and the cycle will start all over again
discord will continue to stick around for a couple more years after that, until the company that bought it decides it’s not worth running anymore and unceremoniously shuts it down, destroying over a decade worth of people’s memories in the process
Hey there - would you be so kind and check out my feature request for Signal Desktop "Allow multiple accounts to be linked to one Desktop installation (/linked device)", especially if you feel the same? :blobfoxpleading:
Ofc you don't have to, but the thread stalled a bit lately... :blobcathearthug:
It looks like "youtube" is covered already, but any #scuttlebutt about that is appreciated. The knowledge about what's best or hot at any time is also federated 😕
#Signal introduces a new quantum-resistant key agreement protocol called PQXDH.
"With this upgrade, we are adding a layer of protection against the threat of a quantum computer being built in the future that is powerful enough to break current encryption standards"
Nur kompett dezentralisierte Systeme die komplett #SelfHosting-fähig sind (#eMail mit PGP/MIME & #XMPP-#OMEMO) können sicher sein, wenn diese korrekt aufgesetzt und konfiguriert sind - bei allen Beteiligten.
Da #Signal eine proprietäre #SingleVendor / #SingleProvider - Lsung ist würde ich denen weniger vertrauen als ich auf dem Rücken liegen senkrecht pissen kann ohne nass zu werden.
#XMPP + #OMEMO und #PGP/MIME sind interoperabel, sicher und schnell...
Weil ich hab' auch #TechIlliterates binnen 5 Minuten gezeigt wie diese das auf MonoclesChat u.ä. einrichten können!
