SimpleX Chat
(lemmy.ml)
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?
It's pretty good and I use it a fair amount. Sometimes messages don't order correctly when they are sent and your client is off, so be sure to reply to the messages you are talking about so the order is clear. I prefer Briar, but it doesn't work for some people due to a lack of iPhone app.
