Those who were scandalised by @element selling encrypted @matrix communications services to cops, and suggesting XMPP as a replacement, you might be interested to know that...

»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.

Can't be repeated enough, quit whatsapp where you can, use signal. It's great, very secure, opensource, not tied to #bigtech , non-profit etc.

I finally got around to testing a bunch of GNU/Linux chat apps that support the @matrix protocol. Not one of them was suitable for production use;

https://trisquel.info/en/forum/can-trisquel-11-please-replace-pidgin-21st-century-chat-client#comment-174442

... which I'm presuming means there still isn't a functional Matrix client for mobile GNU devices like the PinePhone and Librem5.

about the Join Jabber collective:

https://joinjabber.org/about/goals/

Their aim is to make the federation of chat servers using the XMPP protocol accessible to more people, and improve across the whole network.

What's the best @matrix app for Android?

Fight!

Sagt nicht nur einfach im , sondern sagt was ihr wollt. Trotz moderner können Menschen immer noch nich wahrsagen und eure Wünsche erraten.

Pax is a sleepyhead. Almost time to go to bed. Good night (or good day) to you all!

Microsoft Teams is:

  1. A terrible user experience
  2. Slow and resource hungry
  3. Low-key spyware
  4. A walled garden that shuts down competition due to the way the product fundamentally works
  5. With poor uptime
  6. Poor discoverability
  7. With insufficient privacy and notification controls
  8. Aggressively and in my view inappropriately pushed - particularly into public services contracts
  9. Resulting in a massive attack and personal identity fraud vector just waiting to be exploited

Perhaps we shouldn’t outsource our logistical means of communications in organisations that rely on good communication to operate? Just a thought.

Ahhhhhhhh this is what I needed... This app allows me to have all my clients in one program again. I'm so sick of having a bunch of web or psuedonative apps just to talk to people. ONE! like back in the day with . That was great. Today is such a mess, but improves the situation a lot.

»Chatkontrolle: Verschlüsselte Dienste geraten in den Fokus«

Mich wundert es nicht, auch wenn zB Signal sich wehrt, dass Chats dann doch überwacht werden. Sicherheit ist sobald unterbrochen, wenn dritte die Kommunikation wahrnehmen und einsehen können. Als verschlüsselte Alternative lässt sich zB @briar und @cwtch nutzen.
