@dansup Signal is good but i'd say Session is the best in my opinion

@dansup Signal isn't federated or open -> Matrix/XMPP

@dansup I knew about John Mastodon, but now John Peertube?

@dansup friendica is horrible. just horrible, the other apps are great, but still have weird flaws. like in mastodon, if I see a post that is really really really really long it takes forever to scroll past it, especially if this person spams. there is no "see more" text to a long text. and in mastodon just replying to you, is a small window to the left of the post.

peertube won't won't without money for the creators, somehow.

@dansup signal isnt open source or federated, is it?

@dansup In what possible sense of the word is signal federated? I genuinely was unaware of this.

@dansup I have been using Matrix on FluffyChat and Element X instead of WhatsApp and it's just amazing. I prefer it to Signal.

@kitkat Client app is open source, but not the server part. It isn't federated and additionally is very dependent on the aws infrastructure.

@dansup @matrix @xmpp signal still just crashes on startup on my Huawei phone. It apparently uses google APIs so it certainly isn't escaping from BigTech.

@dansup LinkedIn → ? Someone should do that, just sayin’

@pwm It's not; that's why there's an asterisk by it with a note at the bottom.
I'm guessing he added it as there's not really a federated messaging platform at the level of WhatsApp yet.

@hyc I've used it just fine on a De-Googled Pixel running GrapheneOS without G Play Services. Might be something specific with Huawei, but I have no clue

@dansup @matrix @xmpp I wish people would use Simple X en masse instead of WhatsApp.

@techindepth27 oh the post got edited, I see.
Deltachat would be a sane suggestion in its place imo as it runs over email. Alas.
