There aren't that many good messaging protocols that are that popular, I do wish they improved on it rather than some trying to push RCS Which has become a google propriety protocol at this point. > Use signal >> Nobody uses it >> Questionable > Use Watchapp >> Controlled by facebook >> facebook spies and collects data and geolocates you and many other stuff. > Use Telegram >> Compromised > SMS >> Very popular but the government can access that data
Honestly rather have the gov have the data over private companies with shady backgrounds.

Who is Telegram compromised by though? If it's just the Russia government, then not really a big deal; doubt they'll be sharing information with Western countries any time soon.

Bro, you gotta be a telemarketer for Jack Dorsey.
Who the fuck trusts that guy...
- To keep it to secure standards.
- To keep privacy.
- Have a sizeable market share. >>106269058 >LINE? Viber? WeChat?
Nobody uses that shit, at least locally (from the perspective of where I live).
>>106269079 >Who is Telegram compromised by though?
At this point?
All but confirmed officially: Israel, France and Russia.
Basically guaranteed: UAE, the US and UK.
Maybe: Iran, China.
There is no one "on your side" or that wouldn't share data with your government.
>>106269135 >There's really no good standard
SMS, you can always get a response back, because every phone has an SMS app to manage these.
It's just not secure nor is it private.
Also at this point WeChat shouldn't even be considered a chat app, it does way more than that, it's what elon wants x to be.

At this point just use carrier pigeons or an encrypted direct air-to-air system if the other lives nearby, with yagi antennas.
Extra based points if you use an illegal frequency and disrupt 5G for the whole town.
An important announcement why you shouldn't tell anyone your phone number.
Once I saw how normies installed an app that tells you with what names a phone number was saved in "contacts" app. Probably they buy this data which normies share when apps request it. They were checking numbers of people who they knew IRL and there were a lot of names like "nigger", "faggot", " a guy from gay bar with small cock", "girlname (webcam whore)", "husband of my fuckhole" etc. They were all laughing but as a freetard I almost had a heart attack.
We use a common ssh account on a computer I own with a common screen session and a text editor. We have devised our own encryption algorithm offline and we do it on pen and paper while typing on that shared text editor over a vpn connection.
>>106269009 >imessage
iMessage is probably the "best" solution with the major drawback of being on Apple devices. If Apple used the signal protocol for encryption etc it would absolutely be the best solution. I would bet that might be in the works for the long term. Whatsapp does use signal protocol, they just fully spy on you themselves. Apple will at least spy on you less. Also, Apple is pushing the regular RCS vs the Google versions, which is why they took so long to implement RCS.
I wish we could go back to email clients that are more like a message service.
Japan had this for a while and it has all the upsides of file transmission etc while being agnostic to the email host. You could host your own shit or choose which provider you would trust and able to message people with or without a specific app.
