Obviously we prefer Session, SimpleX, & XMPP over Signal. Signal still requires a number to register and is completely centralized to Amazon's AWS. This being said, it's 1000 times better than SMS or WhatsApp groups. So to celebrate Signal's new usernames feature to hide the number from group members, we now have a Signal Group:

(SimpleX/Session/XMPP Groups are still active)

Link error.

Link working for me...

I'm using Molly (which is on the latest update and have already set up my username), so that might be why it isn't working, which is a bit annoying.

Ah. Derp. I forgot to uninstall signal and that caused an issue with the link routing to Molly. 😅

Briar Project is pretty cool too.

Yeah, are you part of any Briar forums?

I love Briar, though I don't have the technical knoledge to compare it to simplex, tox or simmilar alternatives

Briar both parties have to be online since there are no servers. it's pure peer to peer

Yes, that one I know, though my concerns are about the code and the implementation, the tradeoff made by each.

I like that with briar I can use it in a place where I don't have internet though I need to be near, but it is designed for such a scenario afaik, like a protest or something like that

But SimoleX is just perfect UI and UX, also they seem to be legit 😬

I thought the feature was only available in beta version...?

It's in v7 now. You can also toggle it off in settings
