nostr:npub1m4ny6hjqzepn4rxknuq94c2gpqzr29ufkkw7ttcxyak7v43n6vvsajc2jl I’m curious about Threema. I read about it. Seems really interesting. Especially that you don’t need a phone number to register.

If I want to show the app to friends or family that aren’t privacy focused or bitcoiners, do you think it has all the functionality they would normally use in a regular messenger ? And is it reliable ?

It's very high-quality and reliable. We've been using it for years, for messaging and telephoning.

That’s good to know. So more reliable than simplex? Same level of reliability as signal for example ?

Yes.

I use Simplex, too, but it's hit-n-miss.

That’s why I uninstalled it. I was never sure if my recipient actually got the message.

Do you know if you send a link (pointing to an image), like if I copy the url from an image on nostr and send it via threema, does it render the image or does it just show the link ?

I think, just the link. Not sure.

I use threema as well and have been very happy with its reliability. I think it would be great for anyone. I haven’t used simplex in a couple months. I never couldn’t that a message had been received.

I remember talking about it with you a couple of months back. What’s the point of a messenger if you don’t get the messages reliably 🤷🏾

Exactly.

We use it as a small chat and for Nostr DMs.

But I wouldn't use it for "Mom, please pick me up an hour earlier."

Simplex right ?

Whereas threema you would use for “mom pick me up…” ?

Yup.

Ok sold

I’ll give it a try

Thank you
