Currently reading: Remember the mid-nineties? Last millennium? When messaging each other via Compuserve and the likes was the thing of the day? With follow-up emailing?
The author of the book saved conversations from then with a friend from overseas and published them - with permission, of course. Reading them, made me fondly reminisce those times. Trouble with forums, friendships developing, focused but long messages every other day, meeting up then IRL. Nice.

I have no qualms in seeing messaging apps copying the best features from one another; interoperability would be nice though - if you prefer WhatsApp, Signal or iMessage you do you... But allow everyone else to communicate securely and privately with each other. #Technology #innovation #Messaging #messagingapps

Do we really need yet another end to end encrypted server and client (App)?
Signal and Matrix / Riot work reasonably well.
Enlighten me.

I just managed to get some more of my family onto #Signal. And it wasn't even intentional!

If you really want to know how secure and private popular #messaging apps are: We completed a technical review of selected apps; a detailed user experience and user interaction design analysis; and a comprehensive policy review. #security #privacy

One interesting use of my School-Operated #Email server is private and end-to-end-encrypted messaging using @delta on their servers.
It works surprisingly well considering it's using E-Mail as a backend, and especially groups are quite seemlessly implemented.
Some might call this abusing my #School provided E-Mail, I just call this exercising my right to #Privacy.

Reminder that #WhatsApp sucks for #Privacy (especially outside the EU) and that you should urge everyone and yourself to move to something else.

@downey Case in point: I only trust shit I know myself and in terms of #E2EE & #Messaging, I'll stick with #XMPP-#OMEMO since #Matrix is bad.
