Encrypted messaging only works if it survives failure. That’s the flaw nostr:nprofile1qyv8wumn8ghj7enfd36x2u3wdehhxarj9emkjmn99uq3jamnwvaz7tmswfjk66t4d5h8qunfd4skctnwv46z7qpqzuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsfce088 points to in even the best centralized tools: one company, one infrastructure, one outage away from silence.

I think @keychat had a better nostr based solution but @SimpleX remains my best bet overall. But fully agree with centralization making Signal a liability
