What is Briar. Is it good. How does it compare to e.g. Signal, Telegram

(That is my current scale because I consider Signal "Very Good, But Having Some Interface Frustrations" and Telegram "Radioactive Do Not Touch"

@mcc You see, Briar is very, very different from Signal or Telegram. The use cases to which it is best suited are not the same as those by which we "measure" the quality of Signal, Telegram, Whatsapp, Wire, Element/Matrix or others. Briar's focus is on building a very specific network of devices that connect to each other directly, without central servers, and which can even connect via Bluetooth, without wifi or internet available. If you're expecting the same features as Signal, Telegram, Whatsapp, Wire, Element/Matrix or others like them, you may be disappointed. But if what you're looking for is an app based on EXTREME security and privacy standards, or on resilience in adverse communication conditions, it could be your alternative.
