While platforms like #matrix or #signal manage user identities on a server, #deltachat and #Chatmail are not platforms in the classic sense. They operate without a central registry, meaning there is no central gatekeeper to grant or deny access. This setup for private messaging naturally […]

It took a while but it's shaping up nicely :) Post-Quantum Cryptography and Reliable Deletion, better known as Forward Secrecy, are going to become available in 2026 in #deltachat. For more details, including the recent #fosdem26 talk recording:

Was thinking about the French news that they will move away from Zoom and even Signal. At first I understood the Zoom issue and was a little perplexed by the Signal one, however I can understand it in that there is no way for France to host their version. Which brings me back to a question, will […]

Imperial sadism: The #USA regime is gloating about collapsing Cuban society.

The reason there are fuel shortages and blackouts is #trump imposed a total blockade of oil.

This is a barbaric medieval siege. The #us empire wants to drag #cuba and the world […]

crazy conspiracy theory of the week:

the actual reason #google wants to block installing of apps that are have not "verified author" in #android is so you can't install #newpipe and similar to watch #youtube without ads, they don't allow NewPipe in #googleplay and are probably very upset by 3rd […]

#usa should fuck off and leave #cuba alone, if socialism is so bad let them fail on their own, the world should be ashamed for not putting sanctions on US and preventing such big bullying in human history

next time someone tells me "sharing an invite link or QR picture is too hard, I need something I can share writing manually"

I will just tell them "come on... just draw your invite QR, it is not that hard! you lazy bag!"
Ever wondering where the QR codes in #deltachat come from? each of them is handmade, as everything in delta :) #fosdem

@Distante #deltachat, it is decentralized, doesn't require phone numbers or any private data, onboarding is smooth much easier than in signal, similar UI (it is a signal fork) it has much better multi-device and multi-profile support, secure in-chat mini-apps […]

I think #signal seems to be a really good app. Both from UX perspective and privacy (as far I've heard from others).

But it's still US software hq:ed in Mountain View California (with Alphabet, Google, LinkedIn), so switching to it does nothing(!) towards European digital independence. It […]

being a kid and thinking "I wish I become a billionare so I can help people and stop hunger"

growing up and realizing that to become a billionare you need to take things away from people so doing that to then "help them" is pointless

reality is disappointing 😞
