What do you think of Session messenger?
Discussion
session is interesting, ux is a bit rough, frustrating they pretend a shitcoin is required for the network to run
Well the way THEY currently have their network setup they do need their shitcoin (OXEN) as it is what allows the nodes that route sessions messages to join their network, however I agree the technology they created with session & lokinet could be ported and modified to be coinless or use bitcoin as the coin to incentivize the nodes that route the traffic. It would probably require a pay as you use type incentivized structure and would need to be either a sidechain or layer off the bitcoin network. Incidently it is their shitcoin that is holding their technology back too because it has no value proposition.
I wish session would generate a new ID for every contact, like how you can generate new bitcoin address that all point to same wallet.
One fixed session ID seems only a minor improvement over a phone number. Though they do have a few other technological advantages as well.
I recently discovered SimpleX but need to research it more. Seems promising through
One major problem with the “best” solution is that almost no one uses them. I don’t know anyone else who uses SimpleX. If you want to test it out together, send me a DM.
