RE: Delta Chat - Open Source and Encrypted Chat Over Email

in #steemhunt6 years ago

I think telegram and whatsapp are also encrypted. Basis your comments i understand that this uses email provider's servers for chats? Unlike others? But how is that better than whatapp? Actually if i can use it with proton mail or any other paid and secure email service then its great. Also, what if the party at the other end isn't using this chat? Do they get emails? If yes, then people will unfriend me.

Sort:  

you may use it with proton mail if i am not mistaken for encrypted messaging. The main diffrence from whatsapp and telegram is Delta Chat is %100 open source so it is transparent and open audition. And Delta chat dont have centralized servers like Telegram and Whatsapp where all your data is stored. And also unlike whatsapp and telegram, you can communicate with people who dont have the same app like yours, just email adress is enough, no phone number required which is also a privacy issue.
