It’s far from perfect, but I’m grateful for Signal. I’m moving more and more of my communications there.

Have you tried SimpleX?

You're probably right.

Terrible UX. I appreciate the design, but it’s miles away from any real adoption.

Speaking from experience. I've tried getting people to use it as well as Session. All I get are looks of confusion.

Same. Bitcoiners get it, but normies are befuddled.

If you are on android, you can try : https://molly.im/

Thanks, Amine. I’m on iPhone, but that looks great.

A phone number + shitcoins inside

Not the best choice, honestly.

And what is the best choice?

Matrix Protocol. SimpleX have a huge potential but you don’t like it right now, but let’s give it a time.

Yes!

I settled on Signal for "normal" communication. Just put an out of office on WhatsApp one day saying if you want to message me download Signal with a link. Got all my family on it, most of my friends and some work colleagues.

SimpleX looks like a good long term solution but the UX is not there yet.
