Every time I mention Wire, someone gets all up in my timeline about how it leaks metadata and that Signal is the most secure. Having to use your phone number is a pretty impressive hunk of metadata to leak, yo.
"But there are workarounds!" If your first response is to suggest a *workaround*, you've ignored the fundamental design flaw.
Of course, neither of them use #IPv6, so it's hard for me get excited about either one. I go where my friends are (firmly entrenched).
@nivex
tox.chat is missing there though.
@danyspin97 That's covered in the FAQ.
@nivex
Ah, seen now. Still a silly reason :(
@nivex
Learning curve can be improved, design flaws cannot. So yeah, i would add it as a "in development" alternative. I still didn't have any luck finding someone that wants to try it.
@nivex @danyspin97 I haven't found any good mobile app.
@danyspin97 @DC7IA @nivex Yeah, but no good mobile app for XMPP.
@danyspin97 I just looked at tox.chat. Looks pretty impressive but much steeper learning curve. I think the comparison site was geared toward tools marketed at a more general audience.
If I had my way we'd all be using XMPP and possibly OMEMO. Standards are great, there's so many to choose from.
