I much prefer any of these options these days:
- @session
- @simplex
- @threemaapp

Threema is centralized.
Session is decentralized, but you can't easily run your own servers.
SimpleX is decentralized and you can run your own servers.

Using any of them is better than whatever came with the device you use.

Say hello to more #surveillance in your online chats and DMs, thanks to the recent "leak" of Pentagon classified documents by a low level National Guardsman;)

Isn't it so convenient how this opens the door to even more invasive monitoring online, huh?!

No, DMs in #mastodon are NOT encrypted!
