Delta Chat is a new chat app that sends messages via e-mails, encrypted if possible, with Autocrypt. You do not have to sign up anywhere, just use your existing e-mail account with Delta Chat.
I also use xmpp, irc and matrix ^^ What I like about DeltaChat is that it uses an existing infrastructure that everyone has, e-mail. And with autocrypt, even novices can use encryption.
For me, a real chat application run in the background and gives you message at any time. I don’t know if delta-chat run in the background but it seems a weird solution. But if you are happy with it, why not. ( For info, app xmpp ‘conversation’ running in the background is only 10M RAM)
DeltaChat uses push mail, it sends messages directly from the server to the phone. I don’t oppose xmpp to deltachat it’s different technological solutions. I just share the link to this project which I think is great. Most people are sending unencrypted emails. At least with deltachat they’re encrypted.
