Solid, IMO, SimpleX is still the better choice, but the fact that Keet Chat is serverless 100% is quite appealing.

SimpleX uses relayers, your metadata is sent to relayers and, after is received, the metadata is deleted, keetchat does not use relayers at all is 100% p2p and encrypted e2e. This seems quite appealing but it does add a reliability factor, your messages will stay in your device pinging the receiving party until delivery, this decreases efficiency and could be a negative factor in battery consumption, more test is required.

Yeah I noticed Keet is a bit strange with deliverability, I have experienced sent messages disappear later. It takes quite a while for it to ramp up the connections after opening the app. Still very interesting concept. Also noticed when attempting to join a group nothing would happen until at least one of the group members came online. In a way I kinda like this, even though that probably isn't the end goal of this chat :)

Just bugs since v4 most of which have now been fixed
