It’s like a regular encrypted chat but with peepholes and racism.

Quick everyone, install this just so that if Pete Hegseth invites people to the next airstrikes chat group, your satirical JD Vance account will be next to the real JD Vance's account and he'll probably add you both and figure it out later.
Never trust any social media sites "private" chat.
Especially not one of the big ones run by weirdo fascists. You know Elmo is going to snoop on anyone relatively famous, or that just say something he doesn't like.
In all honesty, there's zero reason to even have accounts on them
Even if the server had zero knowledge of your private keys (which is doubtful), I'm sure the client code won't have any backdoors. It's only the social media "platform" owned by the world's most thin-skinned billionaire.
if (message.contains("elon") || message.contains("musk")) {
upload(chat.privateKey)
}
Or ever.

Ah, new ways for Kegsbreath to expose his idiocy.
Don't trust it at all.
LOL nope. I'd use anything else. As in NO X.
It was eyerolling back when that dickhead decided to sell blue checkmarks instead of issuing them only to verified celebrities.
I do really like E2EE but why do I need it in everything?
If I want to talk to someone I would rather them message me on Signal or something that I trust more.
Yeah, way too many services have chats. I think it's because every large platform wants to be an "everything app". Messaging is a really easy to feature to implement to (theoretically) add value.
Cool, and I bet it will be just as trustworthy as WhatsApp (i.e. not at all).
I trust it but there is a major misunderstanding of end to end encryption. Some implementations the platform holder does not have a key to decrypt data but it is far from a requirement. All end to end means is there's a blocker preventing the network from seeing what you send not twitter who im assuming has a copy of the key.
