I care and this mess will get sorted.

To address some incorrect criticism:

> Did you know @SimpleX Chat now has a blockchain/shitcoin built in (called Flux)?

Nope, that's not true. There is no built-in coin. Flux the company offers their servers to the app users. Not their coin.

> Did you know they've also started doing "content moderation"—blocking users, groups and 3rd party servers?

Also not true. We cannot block users, as there are no users, and we do not block 3rd party servers. We do remove addresses of groups that distribute CSAM from our servers, without any impact on users privacy.

> Yeah, so far it's only to stop CSAM distribution but we all know how that's a slippery slope. The good old "Think of the children" tactic. If there's a method to ban, block or censor, it will be used and ABUSED.

Not true. Freedom of speech without SOME restriction cannot exist - unlimited freedom always leads to abuses of power and tyranny. Study some history. Our freedom ends where the freedom of our neighbours starts, so some limits absolutely must exist to defend our freedom.

> SimpleX Chat ... not decentralized

Not true as well - there are 100s if not 1000s of community run servers. If you don't want to use ours or Flux's, use your own or anybody else's - it's all in a single network.

> not censorship-resistant.

This is correct, and this will change, as was explained in livestream.

Censorship-resistance and privacy are technically contradictory requirements, so they have to be balanced.

> I also found out they are getting funded by VCS such a Village Global

We were never hiding it, and who are it's LPs is irrelevant - they have no influence or control on SimpleX Chat.

Good development. We need cash for privacy and to trade non KYC bitcoin. Hopefully other countries are listening:

Sweden is not the only Nordic country backpedalling on plans for a cashless society. Last year Norway, which has a popular equivalent to Swish called Vipps MobilePay, brought in legislation that means retailers can be fined or sanctioned if they will not accept cash. The government has also recommended that citizens “keep some cash on hand due to the vulnerabilities of digital payment solutions to cyber-attacks”.

This is how to treat journalists

Apparently the new reasoning models are ok at chess… meaning, probably much better than I am, but not enough to compete against a master.
