@dansup @matrix @xmpp What about Olvid instead of Signal? Any experience? (We are testing it at home these days.)

@dansup But what if “we” don’t want the people left on X?

whops wrong decade!

I recently heard about the holochain (currently at the end of development) that will start to make possible to build your own local SELF-hosted, decentralized and encrypted chat room (also cloud...)

everything (redundancy mngt, encryption, storage split between servers, storage itself...) will be made by terminal of members of the chat room and no other server will be involved... (Thus it will request storage allocation from each member)

not only the data are decentralized, but then also the infrastructure with the control of it

That could be the next security & privacy revolution...

@LightningToaster @techindepth27 @guardianproject Thanks I'll check where I installed it from and try fdroid.

@hyc Just a heads up, apparently the official F-droid app has some security issues and isn't recommended. I've used Neo-Store and @droidify Also as @LightningToaster mentioned, you'll need to add the @guardianproject repo in the settings to get Signal to show up

@dansup Matrix crypto is bad. There are so many people recommending Signal alternatives with BAD cryptography just because it's not federated (some are even Signal forks with removed security features! ) that makes me urge two things:

One: pressure Signal into becoming federated.

Two: make people aware that there are plans to add E2EE to Mastodon and, IMHO, it will be better than Signal in some parts (e.g. on Signal you have to check safety numbers to see if no one is tampering with your connection, on Mastodon it will be automatic, like WhatsApp, but open-source, unlike WhatsApp).

@ben @dansup It's open source

@techindepth27 @droidify @LightningToaster @guardianproject signal website only sends me to google play. My fdroid app must've been out of date because even enabling the guardian repo, still didn't show signal app. Droidify worked, and the new apk is running now, thanks.

@zetabeta this is a P60 Pro on de-googled Android.

@hyc Oh yeah, weird, I notice that too now. It seems they have removed the .apk download option from the site.

@dansup I'm not convinced that an ethical version of #TikTok is possible - the entire premise is loss of time and cognitive function to a series of utterly inane rubbish.
