Yeah. Also there's Ricochet [1] and its continuation Ricochet Refresh [2], but these only do 1:1 messaging AFAIK. Ricochet was a big inspiration for my project Quiet.[3] Cwtch [4] also deserves a mention, though it depends on ephemeral servers and isn't fully p2p. 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ricochet_(software) 2. https://www.ricochetrefresh.net/ 3. https://tryquiet.org/ 4. https://cwtch.im/. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago
I like session (does not require phone number) but don't know anyone that uses it. Same for cwtch.im, but that is a bit more specific use case since its tor based. Source: about 1 year ago
It's called CWTCH. It's fairly limited but offers great anonymity. Source: over 1 year ago
Metadata protection (basically, defaults to Tor. E.g. Briar and Cwtch) so that only you can the recipient know when you communicate, how much etc. Source: over 1 year ago
Cool, I was wondering if https://cwtch.im/ was part of your research? Source: over 1 year ago

Use briar. Use LineageOS without gapps (aka without Google Play Services). Obviously don't use Meta or Google apps, because that's where the backdoors are for governments. Use AppWarden to enable/disable/verify the usage of known trackers in your apps. Use NetGuard as an Android firewall.

Briar is a messenger that can use wifi, data, or bluetooth to send messages to anyone else with the app by automatically trying whichever connection works, this can be useful if only one of these options is functioning where you are. Source: 12 months ago
