Thanks. But you can use Molly and encrypt your local data with a password 🔑

And who knows how to do that, anyone?

Fully FOSS and you can use without Google too! Goto settings and select Database encryption with Passphrase!

Same can be said of Signal. FOSS, usable without google. But, I guess if you want a little extra encryption (Signal is already encrypted), I guess Molly would be just fine.

Is it interoperable with signal? Can't get family to swap again, signal was hard enoigh.

Also future of messaging through nostr???

Take this article with a grain of salt. Needing fingerprint only is blatant falacy. Reads like a hit piece, too. 6 years ago and no one has reviewd the code yet? Move 9n from this trash.

I'm sure it was already fixed by now.
