Hello everyone,
I have discovered SimpleX Chat (nothing to do with XChat or HexChat, or the favorite letter of some dumb billionaire), and it appears being a legit good effort at providing good privacy while retaining “mainstream” usability.
And it has been audited (by one company so far, it seems).
The only concern I have is with regards to battery life (given that it has to maintain roughly as many open connections as you have contacts, AFAICT).
Has anyone here used it? Any opinion?
I discovered and installed it a long time ago, but it won’t run on my SO’s old phone and I haven’t been able to convince anyone else I know to help me test it. So, I love the concept but can’t vouch for its usability. Widespread user adoption is always an issue with mew privacy or security tech.
