»Licht und Schatten beim nicht kommerziellen Messenger«
Ich persönlich nutze @signalapp nur für nicht so "wichtige" Themen, denn ganz privat nehme ich ein wenig anders war. Nicht das dies schlecht ist aber sich bewusst sein wie anonym welcher Chat ist und für was Mensch welchen nutzt. Abgesehen davon nutze ich "die Grossen üblichen" von den Konzernen nicht.
#Followerpower. Die Überarbeitung der Messenger-Matrix ist nun vollständig abgeschlossen. Über einen Tipp/Klick auf Teilen würde ich mich riesig freuen, damit sich die Messenger-Übersicht (weiter) verbreitet. ❤️ 👍
Zrobiłem prezentację "Signal i dlaczego warto zrezygnować z WhatsApp" dla mojego zespołu z pracy.
Udało się przekonać ich do zmiany 😎 Następny krok to przejście z GoogleDrive na selfhostowany NextCloud i instalowanie Linuksa :QueerCat: :happy_anarcat:
No More Phone Number Swaps: Signal Messaging App Now Testing Usernames
Offering usernames will allow people to stop giving out their phone number —a sensitive piece of information— in order to connect with others on the messaging app. #signal#privacy
Non tenendo conto degli aspetti della privacy dei sistemi di messagistica, qual è secondo voi la miglior esperienza d'uso per le discussioni individuali e di gruppo ? 🤔
boost benvenuti, grazie!
PS
con i @devol abbiamo un canale #telegram per le comunicazioni importanti del fediverso & M1, qui:
@unifiedpush I love the concept of UnifiedPush, and indeed I use it with Element on #GrapheneOS with no Google anything installed (and thus no Google-powered push notifications).
However, Signal's push notifications work flawlessly on this same device, so clearly they handle their own notifications (and do a good job of it).
So, other than #notifications, what's the benefit to the end user of Molly over #Signal?

Gebruiken jullie ook #signal, als alternatief van Whats***?
Zo ja; wat is jullie ervaring hiermee? Ik vind het een fijne app maar merk dat het lastig is mensen erop te lokken ;)
Tipp Nr.5: Verwende keine unsicheren oder unverschlüsselten E-Mails für den Austausch sensibler Informationen. Nutze stattdessen sichere Kommunikationskanäle wie verschlüsselte E-Mails (bspw. GPG/OpenPGP) oder Messaging-Apps wie Signal oder Threema. Meide proprietäre Software/Apps, denen es an Transparenz mangelt. Die Verschlüsselung ist schlichtweg nicht überprüfbar - Backdoors bzw. Abhörhintertürchen inklusive.
is anyone else experiencing the problem of Signal just like… eating messages? I will send a message, then come back to the #signal app some minutes later and the message isn’t there at all
If you need the extra #Security, something like #Signal is absolutely the way to go. But if «good #Privacy and decent security» is sufficient, I recommend #Telegram.
Why?
To me, saying people should avoid Telegram’s default server encryption is a bit like saying someone’s stupid for not wearing a helmet while driving.
I mean, there's no denying wearing a helmet is more secure! But unless you’re a race car driver, wearing "just" a seat belt is probably enough.
I don't want to give #signal access to my contacts, yet every time it asks me I can say "yes" or "not now" and if I click "not now" it just says "we'll remind you later"
How about you just respect my desire to not share my contacts instead hmm
So, I'm interested how the implementation of "Perfect Forward Secrecy" in Signal looks like, like does every messages has a different encryption key? or does it change over time like #whatsapp does? I tried to find any official documention of this, sadly did not find anything.
Thats why I'm asking, does anyone of you know smth about this and maybe can provide a link to a official source?
Is it (still) worth trying to switch my family and friends from WhatsApp to Signal? (Read all of it, please.)
This may sound a bit dumb, but eh....
