Briar Project is pretty cool too.
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)
Discussion
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 😬
