Guys, please move to something using TOR/I2P. I've been saying it for a long time now, but clearnet services are just asking to be taken down.

Unfortunately for Europe though, the US has a massive incentive for something like TOR to function appropriately, because their military uses it too.

What TOR or I2P chat services are there though? Contrary to popular belief, Telegram blew up because it was so well designed. It was winning design awards year on year back when WhatsApp looked atrocious.

Simplex, Jabber, Briar?

I'm sure there's something over I2P too

SimpleX can be self hosted too right?

You don't need to. It connects over TOR and has no back-end servers that it relies on. Briar and Simplex have forward secrecy and are the only two I would personally use

Ah, seems SimpleX isn't the potential messenger I was hoping for.

Why do you need to self-host it if it's decentralized?

[–] sabreW4K3@lazysoci.al 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Because I would like to be able to start a conversation on my phone and finish it on my tablet

Ah, I get it. Jabber/IRC over TOR for you
