The e-mail address thing is really interesting! It's really hard to get anyone to move off the protocols they know and yeah anything that requires installing an app on the phone without some felt incentive is very difficult 😆
So is this just a client?
I'm still holding onto hope for NOSTR! There's just so much potential, but the whole private key security hasn't quite been figured out.Time will tell on that one but there's definitely a big development effort which is also just fun to see and be a part of.
Have a Matrix chat going which is cool. Element seems to be the most comparable in terms of what people are used to with whatsapp, etc.
Will check out Delta, I know my parents would enjoy it... then again my messages might get buried by the insane amount of spam they get 🤔
How to best install it on protonmail ?
I said in the video that protonmail won't work
That's quite a challenge to find a good cross-platform messaging solution. There are so many... Here is an interesting comparison but it is missing Jami, Tox and Kontalk: https://privacyspreadsheet.com/messaging-apps
Hmmm. Interesting stuff. Yeah, i agree, lots of cool new tools out there, but not enough people actually using them. So this seems like a great idea to eliminate the loneliness issue. Thanks for sharing this vid about delta chat!
Curious after many years if you still use it?
