minus-squareyeolsongaraklinkfedilinkarrow-up6·4 years agoI personally use Element but I think recommending Signal is a great step forward for the average person.
minus-squarethrowaway284921384linkfedilinkarrow-up6arrow-down2·4 years agoI agree the only thing with Signal is it needs a phone number, but the protocol that is solid. Its more practical to have people switch to signal from whatsapp in my opinion
minus-squarermc0linkfedilinkarrow-up1·4 years agoThere is getsession.org it’s signal crypto but decentralized and whitout phone number
minus-squarermc0linkfedilinkarrow-up2·4 years agoBut element.io (matrix) is really powerfull with some bridge to other chat
minus-squareihaphleaslinkfedilinkarrow-up2·4 years agoGreat option. Session is even more private, but a bit laggy. What’s missing is end-to-end encrypted voip.
