I hope he's not using an iPhone anymore
Sounds like using Debian.
If you have hills and mountains just use them, or build a house, bike, cut some wood! At least you're moving with purpose or producing something.
The 15 minutes city is every town in Europe, and it's a nice idea IMO. Just don't force it for those that don't want it. Living in the suburbs and having a car for everything is a very united states idea way of living, so boring, expensive and antisocial. Venezia is so cool.

Immer vorwärts!
Just set it on your client, all users must do the same. The problem is when users have many clients with different omemo keys as all of them must be known by every other client omemo.
Nice, that's not the default though. I'd be interested to see your setup. Can you post a group link?
That would cost some privacy, I can't.
Despite it being easier to self-host XMPP and less expensive on resources, Matrix is more popular. Why?
The real reason Matrix is popular is because corporate and FOSS developers like the encrypted group chats for their internal use. (XMPP is NOT encrypted group chats). So then devs host a Matrix room to answer end-user questions, and having all these rooms encourages overall adoption.
The part that's not usually mentioned, is that only the devs usually use self-hosted Matrix servers, and the vast majority of the public uses Matrix.org which is on Cloudflare with Gmail verification.
In theory Matrix is decentralized, but in the real world, everyone gets Cloudflare metadata surveillance, and uses the same Element client.
Here's my core message:
Try to be Self-Sovereign with what you're doing.
If you're hosting a website, 1 core VPS for email, whatever. Then host your own XMPP/Matrix. XMPP uses so little resources, it's near free.
If a VPS is really not for you, even if you pay someone like me $100 to set it up:

Then public SimpleX/Session servers are right for you. That's fine. This isn't about me trying to force you to use my favorite protocol. It's about you not using Cloudflare (and Protonmail seeing your metadata) and thinking you're "doing privacy".
XMPP can have encrypted group with omemo and pgp.
It's a great freedom to not care what others and society think about you, what they consider success. That's one big step outside "the system".
I agree, but maybe we can find a solution that scale for more people, more people with privacy means better privacy and security for whistleblowers and dissidents
Not everyone will use for or learn how to set up a proxy.
Of course, they know what's best for everyone lol
Good on individual level, but does not scale
