What are everyone’s thoughts on Molly, advertised as a hardened fork of Signal?
To be even more critical of Session, it uses Oxen which is like someone took Onion routing and decided to dress it up as a cryptocurrency grift
I’m OOTL, why do people want an alternative to Signal? It thought that was the good app
It’s centralized, it doesn’t officially allow 3rd-party clients, it requires a phone number, and the desktop app kinda sucks. I use it anyway, but it could be better.
I don’t know about other people, but the only thing I don’t like about Signal is that it is centralized. It seems to be the only option to actually get everything right for security though from what I hear.
That’s a reasonable thing to dislike about it.
I dislike that I can’t reply to another message with a sticker.
I also dislike that, despite having admin access, I can’t delete abusive messages left in groups for anyone but myself. That makes it unsuitable for building communities.
[…] it uses the X25519 public key… as a symmetric key, for AES-GCM.
[…] anyone that knows the public key can decrypt it.Ouch.
