To be a pessimist here: This will be the end of signal. They will move in on the LLC and foundation soon citing national security reasons. Or they may have done so already but kept things under the rugs due to national security laws.
And to play a conspiracy theorist for once: Maybe that was the plan all along. We all know how much Elmo hates Signal.
SimpleX, XMPP, Matrix: The client is more user friendly, less buggy and less “this is for nerds” UI than the clients of those networks, ArcaneChat is more on the WhatsApp-like UI
How on earth do you think the various Matrix clients are “this is for nerds” like and buggy? How do you come to this statement?
Signal is centralized, depends on phone numbers so can’t be used by children in the family that don’t have access to SIM card yet etc. Registering in Signal is also more complicated, SMS verification, solving captcha etc. No good multi-account and multi-device as ArcaneChat.
Signal can be based on Useraccounts without phone numbers as well. And the registration process tbh is a pro and non a con - if you don’t provide a secured process you will be run over by bots at some time.
ArcaneChat groups are always encrypted and safe against MITM (green checkmark displayed in the group name)
Is that feature audited?
Sorry,but all this sounds more like easy marketing buzzwording and not like actual benefits that have a proven benefit.
BTW: Furthmore your website does not confirm with German legal requirements and makes you an easy target for bad faith lawyers,btw.
Don’t get me wrong here,friend, the following is not a bit meant to be related to be connected to the current state of the US,but: This special kind of “force your Christianity onto others” stupidity is very much a thing the US is world leader on.
