  • What were your less than ideal experiences with GrapheneOS?
    Check out https://molly.im/. It's a hardened Signal fork with one version stripping the google dependencies out of it. Push notifications work flawlessly even with battery optimization enabled. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Signal Removes SMS - Any Recommendations?
    The one benefit is that we now have no reason NOT to use Molly (the hardened version of Signal). Previously I didn't just because of sms. https://molly.im/. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Why does Signal discourage downloading the apk directly?
    Hi, you can add the repository in fdroid of a fork of signal, Molly Molly , you have a FOSS version. Source: about 1 year ago
  • ‘I will show you how safe Telegram is’
    Signal uses Curve25519, AES-256, and HMAC-SHA256 for its e2e encryption. So unless you believe those algorithms are insecure, there's no reason to think that their server setup is a compromise on your messages' security. Fear of "future decryption" applies equally to all forms of encrypted communication, regardless of which servers the messages go through. And since AES-256 is known to resist quantum computing... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

    I don't know if they are technically allowed but https://molly.im exists. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

  • Element as a Discord Alternative
    Keep in mind Matrix is a protocol for messaging just like email is a protocol for mail. There's more than one client and Element just so happens to be the most popular one. A really good runner-up would be FluffyChat. Then there's Cinny. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Discord is changing the layout for the mobile app
    That's actually almost a ripoff of FluffyChat with the pull-up server list from Element's Android app. And given Matrix is trying to mimic the semantics of Discord servers with spaces, I don't even like those layouts. Gross. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Will be now, I can fill it.
    There is a package I wanted to use fluffychat (Matrix Client) you can only get it from flathub and snap (officially) there is an aur package for arch (unofficial). This is just an example. There was also some other package that I no-longer use that had a similar case. More will become like this that's for sure. I don't like this future, it sucks. Source: over 1 year ago
  • BundesMessenger is a milestone in Germany’s ground-breaking vision
    @Hamuko I have been on matrix several years, and lately I've been really liking Schildi Chat [https://schildi.chat]. Also, many other users that I know really like Fluffy Chat [https://fluffychat.im/]. In any case, there are several more options nowadays. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
  • Chat client with voice messaging
    Then I've found FluffyChat, and it seems to working just fine; and has a Linux version too. Source: over 1 year ago
